The days when people would queue around the block outside Apple stores are a thing of the past. Nowadays, online shopping is the easiest and quickest way to access the newest phones, so it’s unlikely that there will be many people lining up this Friday when Apple’s 2025 range of iPhones becomes available.

For the first time in around four years, there’s a fresh look to one of the iPhones being released and that is the all-new iPhone Air.

I’ve been trying out all four of the new iPhones, but the iPhone Air has captured most of my attention due to the buzz and questions it’s generating among Apple enthusiasts.

My pick of the bunch – the entry-level iPhone 17

Apple has pulled a real swifty with the entry-level iPhone 17.

It’s the same price as last year’s iPhone 16 at $1399 but it’s double the storage with 256GB being the lowest capacity.

Plus, it has an outstanding screen with 120Hz refresh rate down to 1Hz.

And it has the new A19 chip, and both rear cameras are 48Megapixels, while the front-camera is that impressive centre stage selfie camera.

In my opinion, the entry-level iPhone 17 is the most cost-effective iPhone Apple has released in many years. If you had to choose just one from the four models introduced this year, the iPhone 17 undoubtedly offers the greatest value for your money.

I can’t imagine any owner being anything but happy with their iPhone 17.

The only reason not to love it is the lack of a 4x zoom or similar as you’d get on the Pro. That’s it.

The entire iPhone lineup for 2025 goes on sale this Friday at Apple, retail stores and telcos across Australia.
