Rumor: iPhone Air 2 gets the upgrade everyone is waiting for

The iPhone Air is Apple’s showpiece. It is very thin and looks very stylish. Still, something is missing, but that is solved with the iPhone Air 2.

Interesting upgrade for the iPhone Air 2

For some people, the iPhone Air is actually not an interesting device. It has (just like the iPhone 16e) only one camera at the back. While the cheaper iPhone 17 does have two cameras on the back.

According to rumors on Digital Chat Station’s Weibo Apple is going to do something about that. Because the iPhone Air 2 will have a second camera on the back. This immediately solves one of the biggest shortcomings of the current iPhone Air.

The rest of the iPhone Air 2 remains pretty much the same, but Apple can of course add some minor improvements under the hood here and there. Consider, for example, a faster chip or more storage.

iPhone Air in short

Although the iPhone Air looks quite stylish, its success is not what Apple expected. People were mainly skeptical about the battery life and worried that you could easily break the device. Both of these anticipated problems ultimately turned out to be untrue.

The iPhone Air is the thinnest iPhone ever, with a thickness of only 5.6 millimeters. That is thinner than the iPhone 17, which is 7.95 millimeters thick. The iPhone Air also has the A19 Pro chip, which we also see in the iPhone 17 Pro (Max).

The fact that the iPhone Air is much thinner fits in with Apple’s new design. For example, the iPad Pro 2025 (and 2024) is currently Apple’s thinnest device ever. With a thickness of only 5.1 millimeters, this will remain the case for the time being.

The iPhone Air is not very compact, because the phone has a 6.5-inch screen with ProMotion and always-on. The lightning-fast chip and 12 GB of RAM ensure that the iPhone Air is a lightning-fast device.
