The iPhone Air is being roasted on social media, but they’re the missing the point about thin phones

Apple just debuted its latest iPhones, and alongside the typical trio – the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max – we met a new member of the family: the iPhone Air.

If our TikTok comments are anything to go by, people hate it.
