Rumor has it that Apple is scaling back production of the iPhone Air in response to lower than expected sales. This follows reports that Samsung has scrapped plans for a Galaxy S26 Edge due to sluggish S25 Edge sales. Maybe thin isn't in? https://asia.nikkei.com/spotlight/supply-chain/apple-slashes-iphone-air-production-plans-boosts-other-17-models-sources #iPhoneAir #Apple
Tim Cook and other Apple execs talk iPhone Air’s design vision in new WSJ interview https://9to5mac.com/2025/09/10/tim-cook-iphone-air-interview/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Oh. Look. So surprise. It's THINNER. Wow. But with a big camera tumor on the end because physics trumps marketing.
Sigh. We've been listening to this tired tune on Apple products since, what, before or after Jobs died? Past some point -- in the past, I don't think ANYBODY cares about thinner. Do better. Give us something actually COOL.

Column, notably on Apple hype last night: Apple’s iPhone Air reveal was a lot of hot air – and revealed too many compromises • https://www.stuff.tv/features/apples-iphone-air-reveal-was-a-lot-of-hot-air-and-revealed-too-many-compromises/
And they've killed off the Sim card tray.
Not sure how i feel about removing the sim card feature.
Center Stage though!
And dual action cameras is neat.
There's a lot to like about the Air so far.
Camera time. All about the "fusion" camera.
The iphone SE has something similar if i recall. Didn't review overly well.
The example photos are nice. But the shadows look a bit... lacking again?
