- iPhone Air is currently the thinnest smartphone of the classic design
- But it did not sign on its resistance, rather the contrary
- Zack Nelson from the Jerryrigeveryghing channel showed to destroy iPhone Air practically not going
This year is the year of supertenic smartphones. This new trend in May started the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, which was immediately joined by the Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ and recently completed this group IPhone Air – with a thickness of 5.64 mm the current simultanest smartphone with standard design.

We tried the iPhone Air! Compromises are less than you would expect
For this thin phones, manufacturers must meet several challenges – to place all the necessary components, including a reasonably large battery, all to wrap in a structure that should withstand even less gentle treatment. Nelson Nelson from the YouTube channel Jerryrigeveryything – Galaxy S25 Edge has stabbed his torture, and the iPhone Air has succeeded?
iPhone Air is a miracle in a thin body
The iPhone Air is the only iPhone this year to make Apple – all other apple phones have an aluminum chassis. The reason for this decision is simple – the titanium is lighter and stronger, which is doubled for this thin phone.
Before we focus on the durability of the whole phone, we must appreciate the capabilities of the new Ceramic Shiled Second Generation. While conventional resistant glass can be scratched with hardness 6 (according to Mohs), the new ceramic glass from Apple moves these boundaries significantly – the scratches from the tips with hardness 6 are virtually imperceptible, and the same is true for scratches from spikes with hardness of 7.
Ceramic glass also protects the back of the phone, so the iPhone Air should be really resistant to scratches even without special protection. A pleasant surprise revealed even the baptism of fire – even in direct contact with the fire, nothing happened to the display, and what is even more surprising, there was no disturbance of the oleophobic layer on its surface.


In addition, the praise of the iPhone Air is far from over. All tests of Zack Nelson are ending with an attempt to break, and in this discipline the novelty from Apple literally excelled. Under the pressure of his hand, the iPhone Air only slightly rot and returned to its original position after pressure was released. The phone went through the traditional torture chamber with the head erected, which made Youtubera add one more discipline to the test that answers the question “How much power is needed to break the iPhone Air?”
Zack Nelson found a steel chain in a garage at a crane weight. The strong stress of the iPhone in its center was broken only when the force was 97 kg, which is a pressure that cannot be reached with bare hands. Although the windshield burst in this test, the rear glass remained only bent, and what is shocking – the phone was still working. Obviously, the iPhone Air is a non -man and if you can destroy it with careless handling, you will be tremendous bad luck – it will stand a lot.
