iPhones
2nd most popular mobile OS. Great hardware, fast software, very few compromises.
“Gimme ur money” - Tim Apple
iPhone 15 Pro Max - 2023
iPhone 15 Pro Max - @NYFLFlyer22
OS: iOS 17.0.2
Hardware: Apple A17 Pro, 8GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture Quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 60FPS
Airplane Count : Very High
Notes: With an extra 2 gigs of RAM this year, the iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max runs Infinite Flight fine with no problems on the highest settings. As always, it’s a good idea to lower some settings to assist with heat and battery performance. Anyone who’s upgrading to a Pro this year doesn’t have anything to worry about for IF.
iPhone 12 Pro - 2020
iPhone 12 Pro - @Zachary
OS iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A14 Bionic, 6GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture Quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 60FPS
Airplane Count: Very High
Notes: Runs the simulator incredibly well at the maximum graphics settings. I’d suggest turning off anti-aliasing and enabling limit frame rate for optimal performance with little heat, though the devices runs just fine if you don’t
iPhone 12 - 2020
iPhone 12 - @CannedAviation
OS iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A14 Bionic, 4GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture Quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 60FPS

Notes: Like previous generations of iPhone, the iPhone 12 runs the simulator phenomenally at maximum settings. It definitely can handle graphically intensive apps like Infinite Flight with no problem. It is recommended that Limit Frame Rate is enabled to minimize heating.

Hardware: Apple A12 Bionic, 4GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: Very High
Notes: (Jens) Preform well under flights, with little to some lag during some instances. Runs a little warm if you are taxiing and there are other (5+) aircraft present. I bought this phone new in 2018 and it has survived the upgrades to Infinite Flight.
(Infinite) Works well. But I regret switching to iPhone.

Hardware: Apple A12 Bionic, 3GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 60FPS
Airplane Count: Very High
Notes : This phone is a beast. I have never had an issue running IF with it. All of the graphics setting can be at max and no heating issues even while charging. I would definitely recommend this phone for IF!
iPhone X - 2017
iPhone X - @Matt737 & @kyleditching
OS: iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A11 Bionic, 3GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: Very High
Notes: (Matt) What a beast! The iPhone X can run this huge simulator, with settings all on high! Crazy! Definitely one of the best performers out there!
(Kyle) So far so good! This phone can really handle Infinite Flight well considering it’s 4 years old already! However it can get laggy sometimes in very crowded and busy airports so I would recommend lowering down the graphics!
iPhone 8 - 2017
iPhone 8 - @Dan_77 @AllegiantAir
OS: iOS 15.5
Hardware: Apple A11 Bionic, 2GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: High
Texture Quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: Very High
Notes: Runs perfectly well with everything on high at busy airports. Has a smaller screen than the iPhone 10 which often results in the 8 outperforming the 10. Watch out for overheating.
iPhone 7 - 2016
iPhone 7 - @Dan_77 @RealAviation1974
OS: iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A10 Fusion, 2GB
Rendering Quality: Medium
3D Object Density: High
Rendering Resolution: Medium
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: high
Notes: Good device for Infinite Flight. Runs quite smooth with most aircraft, including most the live cockpit ones, During busy times such as FNF or featured airports, the phone may overheat, and you could see some lag. Is recommended to restart the device before each flight.
kiriburrito - Low ram and poor thermal performance make this a difficult recommendation for flying. Becomes uncomfortable very quickly
iPhone SE - 2016
iPhone SE - @Panther
OS’ iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A9, 2GB
Rendering Quality: Medium
3D Object Density: Medium
Rendering Resolution: Medium
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane count: Very high
Notes: Can easily lag. Is beginning to get quite old now and its small chassis doesn’t do it any favours for cooling
iPhone 6S - 2015
iPhone 6S - @JoelJ @Cbro4 and @AviationJack
OS: iOS 14.5.1
Hardware: Apple A9, 2GB
Rendering Quality: Medium
3D Object Density: Medium
Rendering Resolution: Medium
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: High
Notes: Runs IF greatly at high resolution without much lag. Little to no problems in crowded airports. Great device! Be mindful on long haul flights where the device with slow nearer the end.
IPhone 6 - 2015
iPhone 6 - @Justin0623
OS: iOS 12.5.3
Hardware: Apple A8, 1GB
Rendering Quality: Medium
3D Object Density: Low
Rendering Resolution: Medium
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: Off
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: Medium
Notes: This is my second phone while this device is able to run IF on high graphics i recommend you lower on longer flights or just lower at cruise with its 1 gigabyte of ram this device is not as powerful as some newer devices you will notice this on longhaul flights
iPod Touch 6 - 2015
iPod Touch 6th Generation - @Dan_77
OS: IOS 12.5.3
Hardware: Apple A8, 1GB
Rendering Quality: High
3D Object Density: Medium
Rendering Resolution: Medium
Texture quality: High
Anti-Aliasing: On
Frame Rate: 30FPS
Airplane Count: Medium
Notes: To say I’m surprised by the performance of the device would be an understatement. Solo mode is easy max graphics, but I would strongly recommend lowering them at a busy airport on live. Small screen means a lower rendering res isn’t noticeable. Beware it cooks your hands.
