With rumors circulating about the production capacity of the iPhone Air, a new leak from tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed that a successor to the iPhone Air is expected next year. The upcoming Apple device is anticipated to maintain the thin and light design of its predecessor but will come with an upgraded camera system. The iPhone Air 2 is rumored to sport a 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display with Face ID technology, while the back of the device is said to feature a significant camera improvement.

One of the major enhancements expected in the iPhone Air 2 is the addition of a 48MP ultrawide lens alongside the existing 48MP primary camera. This upgrade addresses a common criticism of the current iPhone Air model, which only features a single camera on the back. Apple's decision to include a high-resolution ultrawide lens aims to provide users with more versatile photography options, filling a gap in the previous model's camera capabilities.

The leak also suggests that the second camera on the iPhone Air 2 will be horizontally aligned, in contrast to the vertical camera setup seen on the iPhone 17. It remains to be seen whether the new model will support spatial video capturing, a feature that could be facilitated by the unique camera configuration. Overall, the iPhone Air 2 promises to offer enhanced imaging capabilities, making it a compelling choice for photography enthusiasts.
