iPhone Air

Yesterday I bought iPhone Air for SGD 1318 (dicounted from SGD 1599). This will replace my trusty iPhone SE 2020 (used for 5 years 7 months and 8 days) as primary phone.

I choose the iPhone Air because of its,

  1. Thinness
  2. 12 GB ram (compared to 8 GB in iPhone 17)
  3. (Almost) same price as iPhone 17 after the discount

The most mentioned drawbacks of having a single camera, 27h battery life (compared to 30h of iPhone 17) won't affect me, because I rarely use my phone for photography, and my phone screen time is about 1h 30m per day.

My main complaint of is availability of colors. 3 shades of white and 1 black is rather dull in my opinion. I didn't like how the glossy frame looked in white models, so I opted for black.
