The iPhone Air has a 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR OLED Display with a 2736 \u00d7 1260 resolution at 460 pixels per inch. Like the iPhone 17 Pro models, it features 3,000 nits peak brightness when outdoors, 1,600 nits peak HDR brightness, and 1,000 nits typical max brightness. The display goes down to 1-nit minimum brightness for Always-On display functionality. There’s a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio along with support for HDR and P3 Wide color for vivid, true-to-life colors. HDR10 and Dolby Vision are supported.<\/p>\n

ProMotion is supported, and the iPhone Air has an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. ProMotion offers smoother scrolling speeds and improvements to videos and games. It has typically been a feature reserved for the Pro iPhone models, but the iPhone Air and all iPhone 17 models support ProMotion.<\/p>\n

True Tone support matches the white balance of the iPhone to the ambient lighting in the room for a viewing experience that is easier on the eyes. Apple included the standard fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, and also added a seven-layer anti-reflective coating that reduces glare. <\/p>\n

The iPhone Air’s display is protected by Ceramic Shield 2, which Apple uses instead of glass. Ceramic Shield 2 provides 3\u00d7 better scratch resistance than the prior version of the Ceramic Shield. <\/p>\n

Dynamic Island<\/h3>\n

Like the rest of the iPhone lineup, the iPhone Air has a Dynamic Island. The Dynamic Island houses the TrueDepth sensor for Face ID and the new 18-megapixel Center Stage front-facing camera.<\/p>\n

The Dynamic Island includes a pill-shaped cutout on the left side for the TrueDepth system, and a small circular cutout on the right side for the camera. Apple uses software to combine the two cutouts into one pill-shaped feature on the iPhone’s display. It is typically displayed as a single pill shape, but in some instances, it can split into two circles. <\/p>\n
