24 October 2025
The iPhone Air has failed to gain significant traction, at least for now.

The leaders of a trillion-dollar corporation producing crap failed to foresee the absurdity of their latest “product,” created out of arrogance, ignorance, and hatred for consumers prior to its release.

    the niche product is selling like a niche product would've? who'd have thunk!??!!

      tsukimi, 24 Oct 2025If you're aiming for thinner devices with limited size... moreif they made it thin, light AND small it'd have made so much more sense. An ACTUAL iPhone 17 Air. 6 inch, thin and lightweight. Imagine that

        If you're aiming for thinner devices with limited size, consumers won't be swayed unless there are significant benefits.
        Going against the trend of high performance and sacrificing too many features just for lightness and ease of holding has led even the industry leader, Apple, to fail… Manufacturers chasing the Apple fanboy trend are releasing various thin devices, but this meaningless fad should be put to rest in 2025.

          This year, I switched to Galaxy... iPhone 17series is disappointing.

            Price is also dropping under €1,000.

            Understandable with its garbage-sounding mono speaker, slow charging, no SIM tray and midrange single-back camera.
            And while the battery might be okay right now, it won’t be as good as new very soon because of the degradation of this tiny battery.

            The Edge was better, it only died because they launched the S25 Plus before it.
            An iPhone 17 Plus would have completely destroyed the Air.

              So when Apple eventually stop the production of the Air it will be a "strategic move" towards a better future and planning & shifting resources for the next big thing.

              But when Samsung does it, it's a "failure" and they shouldn't have tried it to begin with.

                You don't say. 🤣🤣
                Sometimes even blind fandom and the huge money for marketing are not enough when the product is expensive garbage. Reference: Edge and Air.

                  Give me 500 mAH bigger battery and stereo speakers and I will gladly handle over my 16 pro max. Though, I guess they prefer to fail due to greedy nature.
