Apple iPhone Air vs Samsung Galaxy S25 Enterprise Edition
Our Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S25 Enterprise Edition has a slightly higher-resolution main camera, 50MP against the Apple iPhone Air's 48MP, and the S25 Enterprise Edition has the bigger battery of the two, 4000mAh against 3149mAh, but capacity doesn't compare cleanly across iOS and Android, so it isn't a battery-life verdict on its own. The iPhone Air has the stronger screen, bigger at 6.5" against 6.2" and sharper at 444 PPI, and the iPhone Air offers up to 1TB of storage versus 128GB on the S25 Enterprise Edition. Get the S25 Enterprise Edition if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the iPhone Air covers the basics for less.
Buying outright, the iPhone Air starts at £600 SIM-free.
