Dit artikel verzamelt professionele beoordelingen van de Apple iPhone Air, met de nadruk op zijn ultradunne constructie, A19 Pro-chipset en 120 Hz beeldscherm. Critici juichen de techniek en de schermkwaliteit toe, maar waarschuwen dat de verminderde camerahardware, zwakkere luidspreker en kortere batterijlevensduur de keuze verdeeld maken.

Pro

+ dun en lichtgewicht ontwerp
+ prestaties op hoog niveau
+ IP68 gecertificeerd
+ helder en nauwkeurig display

Contra

- slechts één camera
- alleen USB 2.0
- middelmatige batterijlevensduur
- PWM-dimmen

De Apple iPhone Air is een ultradunne toevoeging aan de iPhone-familie die een A19 Pro-chipset combineert met 12 GB RAM en een 6,5-inch 2736×1260 120 Hz beeldscherm. Recensenten roemen consequent de techniek, de opvallende vormfactor en de kwaliteit en gladheid van het scherm. Om het slanke profiel te bereiken heeft Apple hardware verwijderd of verkleind: met name twee achtercamera's en een volledige luidspreker, wat de flexibiliteit van de camera en het geluidsvermogen vermindert. De levensduur van de batterij en bepaalde connectiviteitsopties zijn ook zwakker in vergelijking met de standaard Pro- en basismodellen van iPhone 17, waardoor de Air minder praktisch is voor zware gebruikers. De prestaties en alledaagse fotokwaliteit blijven sterk, dus de telefoon slaagt als een stijlvol, krachtig toestel voor gebruikers die een dun ontwerp belangrijk vinden. Over het geheel genomen is de iPhone Air een polariserend maar indrukwekkend product dat het meest geschikt is voor kopers die draagbaarheid en uiterlijk belangrijker vinden dan uitgebreide functiesets.

86.8% Apple iPhone Air review - De dunste smartphone heeft een heleboel power | Notebookcheck
Met de iPhone Air biedt Apple de dunste smartphone die u momenteel in handen kunt krijgen. Qua prijs zit hij ergens tussen de iPhone 17 en 17 Pro in. Onze review laat zien hoeveel compromissen er nodig waren in het streven naar slankheid.
80% Two weeks with the iPhone Air: It’s not what you think
Bron: Hardware Zone Engels EN→NL
If you’ve read everything I’ve written up until this point, you’ll realise that the iPhone Air doesn’t actually sacrifice much in its pursuit of thinness. Durability is pretty much a non-issue, and performance is stellar. Battery life is decent, though much will depend on your usage behaviour. Casual users could find it completely acceptable, but heavy users will no doubt need a mid-day charge to get it to last the entire day. Personally, the single camera system is what will keep me from getting the iPhone Air for myself, not because it’s bad – it’s very good – but because I know there will be times when I’ll miss having a second camera. If you are alright with missing out on capturing the odd shot, you’ll be fine with the iPhone Air.But for a phone that starts at S$1,599, is this acceptable?

74% iPhone Air review: Pointless until you actually hold it in your hand
Bron: Phone Arena Engels EN→NL
The iPhone Air is no doubt a statement device. Apple took the thin phone idea and pushed it to extremes the S25 Edge wasn't able to. Whether or not you should buy the iPhone Air depends on a couple of things. First, if thin phones are your cup of tea, then this is a no-brainer. There's no other product on the market that can rival the iPhone Air at the moment, as the S25 Edge, as thin as it is, feels much more like an ordinary phone in the hand, especially next to the Air. Second, you should be prepared to sacrifice two cameras and a loudspeaker in favor of rocking the skinniest phone on the market. If you're okay with those drawbacks, the iPhone Air could be your perfect phone, one that will turn heads for sure.

Iphone Air Trades More Than Battery For A Slim Body. Are The Sacrifices Worth It?
Bron: Slashgear Engels EN→NL
Here the thing: If you're going to buy an iPhone Air, you're going to have to deal with battery issues. While the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is capable of getting through a full day, the iPhone Air cannot — or hasn't been able to do so in our testing, so far. It bears repeating that I have not tested this phone under normal circumstances, but such was the case with my Galaxy S25 Edge Review, too. I will continue working with the iPhone Air and we will update this review if and when we find out. But you're not buying this phone for that. You're buying this phone for how it looks, and it looks fantastic.

Review: Apple’s iPhone Air is a bunch of small changes that add up to something big
Bron: Ars Technica Engels EN→NL
Most in the Ars Orbiting HQ are in the "I don't see the appeal of this" camp regarding the iPhone Air, and that's a perspective I completely understand. A decade or so ago, during the heyday of the iPhone 6, 6S, and 7, most of us were of the opinion that we would gladly carry around a marginally heavier phone if Apple could just fit a bigger battery in it. But three days of continuous use have helped sell me on the value of the iPhone Air. The iPhone and iPhone Pro have a minor but noticeable heft to them, where the Air is just thin and light enough to feel heftless. It's easy to carry and pocket while still being sturdy enough to handle day-to-day use and abuse. And its battery life, while diminished compared to this year's other iPhones, does not regress all the way back to where it was in the pre-iPhone-X era.

80% Apple iPhone Air review: the super skinny iPhone will surprise you
Bron: T3 Engels EN→NL
The Apple iPhone Air is a brilliant phone and it will be perfect for some users who have been dreaming for the return of slim and lightweight phones since devices like the iPhone 6. It only has a single camera, so you miss out on ultra-wide or proper zoom capabilities and putting a case on it, despite you feeling like you'll want to protect it, will ruin exactly what it's about. But the design is an absolute delight to use; the battery life is more than respectable; the display is lovely, and the single camera is very capable. For the right person, the iPhone Air is everything it should be.

iPhone Air (Sky Blue) - OK, I did not expect this!
Bron: Patrick Rambles Engels
The iPhone Air is possible the most exciting phone in the iPhone 17 lineup (even though technically, it’s not an iPhone 17). But the iPhone Air is also the most polarizing iPhone, you either love it or hate it! I look forward to doing an in-depth review of the iPhone Air to figure it out!

iPhone Air Review: Pushing The Envelope
Bron: MrMobile Engels
Today, the same questions dot the discourse around the new iPhone Air. “The base model’s a better deal; the pro models have bigger batteries and sharper cameras.” All true. But after a week using the Air in the real world, only one bugs me enough to push me to go Pro – and it might not be the one you think.

iPhone Air Battery Life Results ARE IN… I’m Shocked!
Bron: Tom's Guide Engels
What’s the deal with iPhone Air battery life? Can a smartphone this thin actually last all day? Or at least, most of the day? Mark is here to report the results of the new iPhone Air battery test based on the standard battery test we run on every phone that comes to our lab. These numbers should give you a good idea of what to expect without using the new iPhone battery pack, as well as how the iPhone Air vs. Galaxy S25 Edge stack up in terms of stamina.

80% Apple iPhone Air Review: Fantastic Form, If You Can Live Without All the Features
Bron: PC Mag Engels EN→NL
Apple's engineers deserve accolades for cramming so much phone into such a thin design. The iPhone Air is a wonder, but I don't think it's for everyone. You can't ask for a thinner, more impressive piece of hardware, especially one with such a fantastic screen, solid performance, and powerful software. Though I miss the expanded optical zoom range of the iPhone Pro's cameras, the Air still takes excellent photos and videos as long as you don't mind a limited field of view. If you normally prefer to take selfies, the Air should be more than enough phone for you. For $200 less, however, the standard iPhone 17 is a relative bargain thanks to its much longer battery life, more flexible camera arrangement, and faster mmWave 5G support, making it the best iPhone for most people and our Editors' Choice winner.

iPhone Air Canadian review: Holding is believing
Bron: Mobile Syrup Engels EN→NL
Midway through writing this review, I moved over to do some testing with the 17 Pro Max, and when I came back and picked up the Air, I had chills. The phone weighs so much less; holding something with a screen-to-weight ratio like this feels incredible. I think 6.5 inches is the sweet spot for large-screen devices as well. The Pro Max feels like a behemoth, and even last year’s 16 Plus was pretty hefty in retrospect. Slimming down the Air and shrinking the screen makes it feel like it was designed with hands in mind, not just with the sole purpose of putting a giant screen in your pocket. There’s something about that that’s reminiscent of Apple from the past, and more than anything, this feels like a true successor to the iPhone X from 2017.

Commentaar

Apple A19 Pro 5-Core GPU: Een relatief snelle grafische adapter waarmee de Apple A18 Pro SoC is uitgerust. Deze iGPU heeft 6 kernen en is geschikt voor RT; het lijkt erop dat hij gebaseerd is op dezelfde architectuur als GPU's uit de M4-serie. Hij slaagde erin om de 7-core Apple M1 GPU in veel tests te verslaan in onze tests van oktober 2024.

Deze grafische kaarten zouden alle huidige spellen moeten kunnen draaien, maar de meeste spellen zullen alleen met gemiddelde of lage detail instellingen en lage resoluties goed werken. Oudere of minder veeleisende spellen kunnen nog wel met goede grafische instellingen gespeeld worden.


>> Meer informatie kan gevonden worden in ons Vergelijk van Mobiele Grafische Kaarten en de passende Benchmark Tabel.


A19 Pro: Een krachtige smartphone processor en formele opvolger van de A17 Pro. Hij beschikt over 2 prestatiekernen en 4 efficiënte kernen, samen met een 35 TOPS NPU en de 6-core A18 Pro GPU. De A18 Pro laat zowel de Dimensity 9300 als de Apple A17 Pro en de Apple A18 vrij ver achter zich met minstens 10% voordeel, voor zover het multi-thread prestaties betreft; de 6-core GPU slaagt er ondertussen in om de 7-core M1 GPU in veel tests te verslaan.
