Layouts iPhone Air 2 and iPhone 18 appeared on the networkrevealing the possible sizes and main design elements of future Apple smartphones. According to preliminary data, both models will receive displays with a frequency of 120 Hz, Dynamic Island and a dual main camera of 48 MP. At the same time, significant changes compared to predecessors are not yet expected. Images of layouts published on Weibo. Such models are usually made from blueprints from the supply chain so that case makers can prepare accessories in advance. They often correspond to the dimensions of future smartphones, but do not guarantee the accuracy of all details.
What will be the screens of iPhone Air 2 and iPhone 18
According to the leak, the iPhone Air 2 will have a diagonal display 6.55 incheswhile the standard iPhone 18 will have a screen on 6.3 inches. Both models will supposedly keep the 120Hz refresh rate and notch Dynamic Island. Other expected features include:
- dual main camera with two 48 MP sensors;
- the Action Button;
- a separate Camera Control button;
- displays with 120 Hz refresh rate support.
A separate insider claims that the standard iPhone 18 will get a wide horizontal platform for the cameras on the back. According to his information, the production of this model can start already this month.
iPhone Air 2 will keep a thin body and get a second camera
The Air line is focused on a thin and light body. The iPhone Air 2 is rumored to continue this concept and retain the titanium frame. Also, the smartphone will allegedly remain without a physical SIM card slot and will only support eSIM. Omitting the SIM tray frees up some internal space for other components. At the same time, the thin body limits the possibilities of installing a large battery, so real autonomy will be one of the key parameters for evaluating the new product. The most noticeable update may be just that 48 MP dual camera. The first generation iPhone Air had only one main module, and this became one of the main reasons for criticizing the model. A second camera would potentially eliminate this limitation. According to sources, sales of the first Air turned out to be weaker than Apple expected, so the company has reasons to review the configuration of the successor. However, there is no official data on the sales and final specifications of the iPhone Air 2.
Will there be significant differences from the iPhone 17
According to preliminary specifications, the standard iPhone 18 will not receive a radically new format. For comparison, the iPhone 17 already has a 6.3-inch display with a frequency of 120 Hz and Dynamic Island. The first iPhone Air is equipped with a screen with a diagonal of about 6.5 inches, so the increase to 6.55 inches in the next generation will also be small. It seems that Apple plans to gradually improve both models, rather than completely change their concept. For owners of current smartphones, this means a relatively modest set of reasons to upgrade, while buyers who previously rejected the Air due to its single camera should keep an eye on the next generation.
When will iPhone Air 2 and iPhone 18 be presented
According to previous reports, the iPhone Air 2 could be introduced in the spring of 2027, along with the standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e. Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman also called such terms earlier. One insider suggests that the price of the new model may increase by about $50. However, this claim comes from a single source and has yet to be confirmed by Apple. The company has not yet announced the smartphones or revealed their specifications. Therefore, the dimensions of the displays, cameras, case materials and prices should be taken as preliminary data that may change before the presentation.
