The embargo on the first round of reviews for the iPhone 17 and Air series has been lifted, and the real-world performance of the iPhone Air has garnered considerable interest. Overseas tech blogger The Tech Chap carried out a battery life test involving the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and iPhone Air. The findings indicated that the iPhone 17 Pro Max emerged as the leader, boasting a battery life of 7 hours and 58 minutes. In contrast, the iPhone Air managed to last for 6 hours and 43 minutes. Although it came in last, the gap between its battery life and that of the standard iPhone 17, which clocked in at 6 hours and 55 minutes, was minimal. Despite its slender design and comparatively smaller battery capacity, the iPhone Air's actual battery performance surpassed expectations, enabling half a day of uninterrupted casual streaming.
