The real iPhone Air is amazing. Have a one-hour ultimate experience of all Apple's new products in the fall.

On the 19th, Apple officially launched its 2025 autumn series of new products globally, with the iPhone 17 series of smartphones as the highlight. Mainland China is among the first - launch regions.

One day before the official launch, I had the opportunity to get up - close and personal with all the new products Apple released this time. Although the time was quite limited, only about an hour, I still discovered many details that were not well - noticed in previous promotions and reports, some interesting and fun features, and my first impression after using the real devices.

To show you more detailed features, I took out my long - sealed Canon EOS 5D Mark IV and the red - ring macro lens to take a set of photos. Just take a look at the pictures.

Let me quickly share some information with you, which may be helpful for your purchase or satisfy your curiosity. I'll summarize it into ten detailed categories.

The real iPhone Air is amazingly thin

Everyone knows that the iPhone Air is known for its thinness, but how thin is it exactly? What does 5.6 millimeters mean? You can only feel it when you hold it in your hand.

Your first impression when you pick it up is actually how light it is. There's a strong sense of "weightlessness". What does its weight of 165 grams mean? It's 12 grams lighter than the standard - version iPhone 17 (177 grams).

Another impression is that the polished titanium frame combined with the integrated glass back panel is very delicate. Maybe this is the dream phone in Jobs' mind that Apple has restored now - a whole piece of glass.

There are obvious texture differences among the four colors of iPhone Air

The four colors of the iPhone Air are all very distinctive: Cloud White, Light Gold, Sky Blue, and Deep Space Black. Don't be fooled by the fact that the first three are light - colored. In fact, the texture differences are quite obvious. The white is very pure, the light gold has a high - end feel, the sky blue is very elegant, and the back glass of the Deep Space Black has a matte texture.

Take a close look, the back glass of the three light - colored versions has a very crystal - clear look.

I think that for many users who are particular about appearance or have a strong preference for thin and light devices, when you hold the iPhone Air in your hand, all the compromises such as having only one camera and a smaller battery will be forgotten.

The overlooked feel of the iPhone 17 Pro

Maybe few people have noticed that in fact, the new design of the Pro series of the iPhone 17 brings a good feel, especially for those who like to use the phone without a case.

Since the iPhone 12, when the iPhone switched to a square frame, it no longer had the rounded - frame feel of the iPhone 6 - iPhone 11 series.

This time, the iPhone 17 Pro series actually has slightly different curvatures for the front and back frames. The front frame is more angular to match the straight screen, while the back frame has a larger curvature, providing a smoother holding feel.

Differences among the three color combinations of the Pro series

Although the iPhone Pro series this time has three color systems: white, orange, and blue, they are really just three color systems, and each model is actually a color - matching combination.
