Pick the Magic7 Pro if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are wireless charging, wired charging, front camera, among others.
Pick the iPhone 17 Air if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. Its strongest claims are weight, promised os updates.
