Design - So this is what the future feels like
The all-new iPhone Air is so impossibly thin and light that it nearly disappears in your hand. At 5.6mm and weighing just 165 grams, it’s the thinnest iPhone ever — even with a large, immersive 6.5‑inch display and the power of the A19 Pro chip. It’s a paradox you have to hold to believe.
Cameras - New front. New rear. New cam-era
- 18MP Center Stage front camera
- 48MP Fusion Main camera
- 4K 60 fps Dolby Vision
- 4 Lenses in your pocket
An all‑new camera system means you can snap amazing selfies, take incredible portraits and landscapes, and capture pro‑level videos.
18MP Center Stage front camera. It’s a total frame changer
The new front camera gives you flexible ways to frame your photos and videos — and so much more. Tap to expand the field of view and rotate from portrait to landscape without moving your iPhone. And when others join the shot, the field of view expands so you get more friends in your selfies.
Centre Stage for photos
An all-new square sensor enables zoom and rotate options, for more flexible ways to frame selfies and videos. And it gets everyone in a group shot — automatically.
Dual Capture video
Record yourself and the world around you with simultaneous front and rear video capture.
Ultra-stabilised video
Capture stunningly smooth video in 4K 60 fps in Dolby Vision, even when you’re in action.
Centre Stage for video calls
Artificial intelligence automatically adjusts the frame, so you’re front and centre for virtual meetings and FaceTime calls.
Smile. It’s the world’s favourite camera
With over a decade of hardware and software innovations, iPhone has become the world’s favourite camera. iPhone Air continues this legacy with its powerful 48MP Fusion camera system that works like multiple advanced cameras in one. Shoot in super-high-resolution 48MP for ultimate detail or 24MP by default, or use the built‑in 2x Telephoto to zoom in with exceptionally clear quality.

Performance and battery life - Power in a new light

And with C1X, the new version of the Apple‑designed modem, iPhone Air is the most power‑efficient iPhone ever made.
