If you buy through a link here, the store pays me a small commission. Your price stays exactly the same. How that works.

My short take

The Air is 165 g with a 3,149 mAh cell, and GSMArena's endurance test clocked 12 h 44 min. That is the shortest of the iPhones here. It has one 48MP rear camera and no telephoto, so the iPhone 18 Pro is the pick for zoom.
