AirPods Pro 3 with heart sensor register biggest price drop since July on Amazon

The iPhone Air with 1 TB capacity is being offered on Amazon for R$ 7,559.10 via Pix. This promotion corresponds to a significant reduction of 44% compared to the original price of R$ 13,499. This Apple device features an elegant and slim design and incorporates a processor very similar to that found in the iPhone 17 Pro, offering greater storage for a potentially lower cost.

A notable strength of the iPhone Air is its thinness. This premium category smartphone competes with devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, which has a thickness of 5.8 mm, and the Motorola Edge 70, with 5.99 mm. Despite being thinner, the iPhone Air maintains a high level of processing capability.

Equipped with the Apple A19 Pro chip, which has only one less GPU core than the iPhone 17 Pro, the iPhone Air is capable of running demanding games and photo and video editing software without difficulty. Additionally, thanks to its Neural Engine component, it supports Apple Intelligence AI features.

Despite its slim build, the device's design demonstrates great resistance. It features a titanium frame, Ceramic Shield back protection, and IP68 certification, meaning the phone should withstand accidental contact with water and dust, in addition to protecting against scratches, scuffs, and light impacts from daily use.

Regarding cameras, the main limitation of the Apple smartphone is that it has only one rear sensor and one front sensor. However, the main lens records images at 48 MP and records in 4K up to 60 frames per second, just like the front camera, which has 18 megapixels for selfies.

Concerning battery life, Apple guarantees up to 27 hours of video playback. The internal component has 3,149 mAh and supports fast charging up to 20 W, reaching 50% charge in half an hour, although this accessory is sold separately.

Interested parties can take advantage of the 44% discount by paying only R$ 7,559 for the 1 TB iPhone Air. Although recognized as an expensive product, this price is considered one of the best available for this ultra-thin, high-performance, and large-capacity Apple model.

Apple revealed the fifth generation of its conventional AirPods on Wednesday, September 9th, introducing significant advancements in Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technologies. The earbuds were presented during an Apple event and are available in two configurations, both equipped with ANC.

AirPods 5 are now available for pre-order in Brazil. The basic model is priced at R$ 1,499, while the version that includes wireless charging costs R$ 1,699. Deliveries of these devices are scheduled to begin on September 18th.

Maintaining the traditional AirPods design, without silicone tips, the new models have not undergone aesthetic changes compared to the AirPods 4, launched in 2024. However, the new generation promises a better fit for different ear shapes, thanks to a reformulated acoustic architecture and the help of Adaptive EQ, a technology that adjusts frequencies according to the device's fit.

The improvements are also reflected in the ANC, which Apple considers the best in an open earbud. The company claims that this technology has achieved 50% greater efficiency compared to the previous generation, which also contributes to an enhanced Personalized Spatial Audio mode.

During the presentation, the company emphasized the integration of the earbuds with the artificial intelligence present in iPhones, citing tools such as Live Translate and intelligent Siri. It is now possible to activate the assistant and request information without needing to use the phone.

It is important to note that these models should not be confused with rumors of AirPods with cameras, whose version, which would supposedly allow capturing images for scene analysis, is only expected to be announced and released next year, possibly alongside the base iPhone 18.

Both versions also incorporate Adaptive Audio mode, which automatically manages volume and noise cancellation modes, Transparency, and Conversation Detection, reducing sound when the user starts speaking.

Unlike the previous generation, which offered separate options with and without ANC, Apple opted this time to launch a second version within a case with wireless charging support. This version presents small improvements but maintains the same look.

For an additional cost of R$ 200, this device features a force sensor that allows controlling the sound by sliding a finger. Furthermore, this version can offer up to 5 hours of music playback with ANC on, surpassing the 4 hours of the standard model.
