Apple has announced the iPhone Air, its thinnest and lightest iPhone yet. The device measures just 5.6mm thick and features a titanium frame with Ceramic Shield protection on both the front and back.
The iPhone Air has a 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion and Always-On support. It reaches up to 3000 nits peak brightness, making it easier to use outdoors. The phone also includes an Action button and Camera Control for quick access to features.
It runs on Apple’s new A19 Pro chip, along with N1 and C1X chips for wireless and cellular performance. Apple says this combination makes it the most power-efficient iPhone so far. The battery is designed to last all day, with a new Adaptive Power Mode that adjusts to user habits.
The rear camera system includes a 48MP Fusion Main camera with multiple focal lengths. The front camera is an 18MP Center Stage sensor that supports landscape selfies and AI framing. Both cameras can record in 4K HDR and support Dual Capture.
In the Philippines, the iPhone Air starts at ₱72,990 for the 256GB model. It will also be available in 512GB and 1TB options for ₱87,990 and ₱102,990, respectively.
