iPhone Air pre-order deals – where to get the best prices on Apple's newest iPhone
Here are the best UK network deals on the new iPhone Air
by Rik Henderson · T3As well as the iPhone 17 Pro / 17 Pro Max, and the standard iPhone 17, Apple unveiled its first all-new handset in many years during the Awe Dropping event. And it's something of a stunner.
The iPhone Air is just 5.6mm thin, yet comes with the same hardcore A19 Pro processor as the bigger Pro models. It is made using titanium and Ceramic Shield 2 glass technology for durability, and while there's a single-lens camera on the rear, Apple has created what it calls Fusion Camera tech to ensure pictures are still great.
The Air is eSIM only, meaning you'll need to swap your physical SIM for an electronic alternative if upgrading, but all UK networks now support it.
Here then are the current UK pre-order deals we've found on the all-new iPhone Air. And note, Apple and networks plan to start shipping on Friday 19 September 2025.
