Apple Considers Adding Second Camera to Delayed iPhone Air 2

Apple’s reported delay of the second-generation iPhone Air will be used to work on a redesign of the device that could include a second rear camera, according to a news brief from The Information.

A redesign that includes a second camera is said to be one way that Apple thinks it can address user complaints that the iPhone Air, while an impressive design feat, has led to too many hardware compromises, especially given the high price tag.

The report claims that some Apple engineers want to release the redesigned version with a second camera in spring 2027, which is when Apple is expected to release the regular iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e.

The report corroborates a leak out of China last week that claimed Apple’s second iPhone Air model is in development and could feature two rear cameras instead of one.

Apple’s work on a second-generation version of the ‌iPhone Air‌ is said to be aimed at reducing the weight, adding vapor chamber cooling, and improving the battery capacity.
