The introduction of the new iPhone Air and Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge has sparked interest among consumers, especially those considering a smartphone upgrade. The iPhone Air is priced at $999, while the Galaxy S25 Edge starts at $1,100. This marks a shift, as the iPhone Air replaces the iPhone 16 Plus and features a larger display than the iPhone 17, though it has fewer cameras.
Both models are designed to be thinner and lighter than previous iterations, appealing to users tired of bulkier devices. The iPhone Air boasts an A19 Pro processor and begins with 256GB of storage. In contrast, the S25 Edge is part of the Galaxy lineup, which includes the S25 and S25 Ultra.
Despite their premium pricing, both phones have maintained stable prices amid market fluctuations, including tariffs from previous administrations. Discounts on the Galaxy S25 Edge have started to appear, indicating potential price adjustments as competition heats up in the smartphone market.
