iPhone 17 Air vs Samsung Galaxy S25
Display:Â In terms of design, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to be the slimmest iPhone model with just 6mm of thickness. However, note that with a slimmer profile, the company may have to go through several compromises. On the other hand, the Galaxy S25 Slim dimensions are still unknown, however, rumours suggest that it may fall between 7.2mm to 7.5mm in thickness. While it may not be as thin as the iPhone 17 Air, it is expected to be known as the slimmest Samsung Galaxy model.
In terms of display, the iPhone 17 Air is rumored to feature a 6.6-inch OLED display with ProMotion technology, offering a 120Hz refresh rate. As far as Samsung is concerned, the Galaxy S25 Slim will likely feature a 6.55-inch display.
Performance:Â In terms of performance, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to be powered by an A19 chip fabricated with TSMC’s 3rd generation 3nm processes, boosting improved performance. Whereas, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim will likely feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite or Exynos 2500 chip. Therefore, both devices will offer flagship performance. With the slimmer model, we may also see new AI features in both devices.
Camera: For the camera, iPhone 17 Air will likely feature a single rear sensor with 48MP resolution and 2x optical zoom. Over the weeks, several tipsters and reports have confirmed the single lens camera to reduce smartphone thickness and weight. Therefore, this may come as a big challenge for Apple, since it may resemble Apple’s SE-series smartphone.
