Review of Apple iPhone Air.

The iPhone Air features a single 48MP Fusion camera with 2x optical quality zoom. No telephoto. No ultrawide. But it is a pretty strong performer based on my testing. Just don’t expect much from the 10x digital zoom.

The iPhone Air does bring some cool new camera features to the table that are also available on the iPhone 17, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max. This includes an 18MP Center Stage front camera that leverages a square sensor to let you shoot landscape selfies without having to flip the phone in your hand
To test the iPhone Air’s camera I put it up against the Galaxy S25 Edge, starting with this shot of produce. The iPhone Air delivers much more realistic looking red and orange peppers with better sharpness. The coloring is off on the S25 Edge.
In this portrait comparison shot at 2x, the iPhone Air delivers a brighter looking image, but I much prefer the level of detail through the S25 Edge. The edges around my shirt look blurry.
