“The iPhone Air has all-day battery life, but we should mention that iOS 26’s adaptive power mode is great and also we made a MagSafe battery that’s only compatible with iPhone Air, but battery life is all day and definitely great.”
@snazzyq who asked for this thing?

@oneguynick @snazzyq a phone that has the exact same 22 hours of streaming video playback as my 16 Pro, but is 2/3rds the thickness, 20% lighter, and has a bigger and brighter screen?

lol, I’ll take two, please.

maybe I’ll miss recording in spatial video, or in 4k@120fps, but I kind of doubt it. maybe the LiDAR scanner? i’ll probably missing having a LiDAR scanner.

@jazaval @snazzyq That is fair. Different strokes for different folks. I am sure it will sell like hotcakes
@snazzyq I was most excited for the anti reflective (well I’d really like a nanotexture option) display but it only got a tiny bit in the keynote, you think it will be any good?
@tbolt @snazzyq The screens on all devices still look quite reflective from the early hands-on clips getting posted after the event, definitely nowhere close to a matte display
@snazzyq I don't think anyone who cares about long battery life with be considering the iPhone Air anyway.
@snazzyq Apple says 27 hours of video playback vs 30 for the 17 and 33 for the 17 Pro. So it's not that much less.
@oversteer @snazzyq that’s also the exact same as the 16 Pro.
@snazzyq I do not understand why the MagSafe battery is only for the iPhone Air. It makes no sense.

@snazzyq all-day battery life!*
