Other No case on the iPhone 17 Air?

[Astuces iOS]

So if you buy an iPhone 17 Air and you put a case on it… then you don’t really enjoy the fact that it’s thin, light and whatever….

Then you put no case on it? Well what if you drop your phone? You lost 1k?

A thin phone with a thin case is still going to be thin. And for those who don’t want a case, they’ll likely get AppleCare. Problem solved.

Yeah sure but it doesn’t seams like a huge deal, the camera is not even inside the phone like the iPhone 5s or SE 1

It might not seem like a big deal to you, but it's a massive deal to some people!

Personally, I'm intrigued by the 17 Air, and can see the appeal to it. Unfortunately, the expected lack of an ultra-wide lens makes it harder to justify for me. Not that it matters at all. I'm not planning on upgrading for another couple of years.

What if Apple skimps on the tele end instead? Apple's styled themselves as the computational photography pioneer, and you can always crop in on and "CSI-enhance" a wide shot, but you can't recover a moment the lens didn't capture.

Tele is less useful to me than a wide lens is. Whatever Apple does next with their cameras has to be better than what Google did with the Pixel's zoom!
