Oh dear. I just can't seem to back the right iPhone. For years I was one of the most vocal proponents of the iPhone mini, citing its delightful size and one-handed usability as reasons why it was the best model for me. Alas, I was in the minority. The mini crashed and burned sales-wise, with the general public seeming to prefer carrying around mini IMAX screens in their pockets. And now, history is repeating itself with the iPhone Air.
As regular readers of my Creative Bloq (hi, both!) will know, I'm a big fan of the iPhone Air. Design for the sake of design floats my boat (hey, my job title is Design Editor after all), and the ultra slim and light design means more to me than the lack of ultra-wide camera lens or mind-blowing battery life. It's not the best iPhone for photography, but it's the best iPhone for me. If various reports are to be believed, though, the Air might be even deader in the water than the mini ever was.
