      how long will the battery last, maybe have to bring a magsafe battery pack when going out, most importantly can it pass the bend test

        I hope it won't be the trend, but no I don't have to sleep forever, and thanks but I won't either. I'm just not gonna buy into the thinness trend.

              And one great 50mp camera is enough for most users to take good photos and especially video, beating phones with only a similar main sensor and a bunch of useless decorative/macro/depth/color 2MP lenses any day.

              Let's hope Apple actually "innovated" enough to make this thin device not bend in half, we'll see.

                    I see no point in thinner phones unless they have folding form factor

                        1 Apple iPhone 17 Air = 10 Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ 4G

                          Still comes with a huge camera bump, and one that only houses a single mediocre camera. Pointless fragile device.

                            I don't see any advantages with this new trend.
                            Smartphone industry has been there long time ago and departed from it.

                              Now, this new iPhone Air isn't some groundbreaking "Apple innovation", it's a long-overdue return to actual innovation : shrinking those bulky components back to a reasonable size. While still improving them, and next, maybe even make them smaller and better.

                              Making today's powerful tech sleek again after a decade of bulkiness.

                                I am missing the point of these thin phones with camera hump, why not make rear side flush without hump and use that space for extra battery? People really care more about how thin the phone is than how long it can last on battery?

                                  5.65 mm is "scary thin"? Please... Vivo X5 Max from 2014 was 5.1 mm thick and still had a headphone jack.

                                  "Innovation" by Apple. Nothing but a joke.
