The biggest trend in phones right now is releasing a device that's as slim as possible. And Apple has now joined Samsung in the race for the best thin phone around. As you'll see in our review iPhone Air review (from $999), Apple has crafted a remarkably thin and light handset that's also super strong thanks to its titanium frame. It also packs a powerful A19 Pro chip, a vibrant 6.5-inch display and fairly good battery life.
However, our Galaxy S25 Edge review (from $1,099) shows that Samsung is a serious contender, thanks to its dual rear cameras, even larger 6.7-inch screen and more robust AI features. To help you pick the best phone for you, I compared the iPhone Air vs Galaxy S25 Edge side by side in several categories to crown a winner. And for more face-offs see our iPhone 17 vs Pixel 10 camera zoom shoot-out.
