orchard apple tree could convey some often requisite upgrades to the iPhone broadcast 2 in the battery and camera department if a new report is to be believed. The Cupertino based tech giant had launched its first ever iPhone Air device alongside the iPhone 17 series in September to mixed feedback from users.
While the iPhone Air did receive plaudits for its design and slimness, the phone also had only a single camera sensor and a small battery. While Apple seemed to have worked on the battery optimization of the device, it still left the users a little disappointed to have to make do with a small battery despite paying a fortune for the device.
Thankfully, Apple seems to be listening to the feedback from users and looking to implement some changes with the successor of iPhone Air.
What could change with iPhone Air 2?
According to a report by South Korea based The Elec, Apple will apply a new CoE display technology to the iPhone Air which will first debut with the iPhone Fold this year. The new technology is said to reduce the thickness of the display while reducing power consumption improving legibility under sunlight.
The report also states that the Apple is considering implementing other new technologies with the iPhone Air 2 but does not go into the details. However, with the display thickness shrinking, it could potentially make space for a bigger battery and solve one of the biggest issues with the original iPhone Air.
Meanwhile, an earlier report from The Information had said that Apple is working on bringing a second camera to the iPhone Air 2 but didn't give details on whether it will be a telephoto lens or an ultra-wide angle lens.
When will iPhone Air 2 launch?
The iPhone Air 2 will reportedly debut alongside the 20th edition iPhone in 2027. The slim phone from Apple had reportedly got off to a sluggish start, just like its competitor Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge. Since then, multiple rumours have said that Apple will not be launching the iPhone Air 2 in 2026 and instead push the launch to next year.
However, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has previously reported that Apple never had annual launch plans for iPhone Air series.
Reportedly, the focus of iPhone Air 2 will be on moving to a 2 nanometer chipset in order to improve the battery life. The report also noted that adding an ultra-wide lens is also technically possible.
