## Caption

The iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air couldn’t be more different — one’s Apple’s biggest and heaviest phone, and the other is the thinnest and lightest iPhone ever. But which one should you actually buy? In this video I compare design, display, cameras, performance, gaming, battery life, and everyday usability after a full week of testing both.
