Photo credit: FPTAlthough Apple hasn't introduced the iPhone 18 Series to the public yet, people have started talking about its successor. According to PhoneArena and a new leak that has just been revealed in the latest episode of FPT by Jon Prosser gives a first peek into the alleged upcoming iPhone Air 2. Although all the information shared describes potential plans of the company, there is no official confirmation from Apple.According to the leak, Apple works on its iteration of the product rather than creating something completely different. The camera system and internal hardware seem to be the main targets for improvements, while at the same time, Apple manages to keep one of the key traits of iPhone Air, namely its extremely slim form factor. Nevertheless, the video makes several speculations about Apple's future product plans.What the leak claims about the iPhone Air 2Based on the video, the upcoming iPhone Air 2 is likely to maintain the slenderness of the design as presented with the debut iPhone Air. Contrary to a substantial redesign of the exterior features of the device, the modifications suggested are aimed at meeting the user demands for certain aspects.One of the most important changes announced by the leak video is associated with the rear camera system. According to the video, the developers of the device have been working on the integration of a dual-camera system which will include both a 48 megapixel main and ultra-wide camera. Compared to the previous model of the phone with a single camera, this will be a considerable modification.As stated by PhoneArena, Apple plans to upgrade the photo-taking functions while maintaining the slenderness of the device, though there is no official information concerning this matter.Camera changes reportedly require internal redesignApart from merely fitting an additional camera, the leak also states that there have been changes made to some of the inside components to fit this extra component.As per the video, it has been claimed that there is now a new smaller Face ID module that makes way for the second rear camera inside without making the phone thicker. According to the presenter, space restrictions were the key reason why there was only one rear camera in the original iPhone Air.Neither Apple nor any official documentation has confirmed these engineering changes, and the details currently remain part of the reported leak rather than established product specifications.Chip, battery and materials also feature in the leakThe leak also discusses possible internal hardware upgrades. It suggests Apple may initially have considered equipping the device with a 2-nanometre processor, although it also notes that the standard A20 chip could ultimately power the device.Whichever chipset Apple selects, it is stated in the report that the next generation iPhone Air can offer some improvements in terms of battery efficiency. But no benchmark figures or any specifications have been released yet to back up this claim.The video also hints at the possibility that the next iPhone Air would continue to use a titanium body shell, and the colour options offered by Apple would be somewhat toned down, like the one being used currently. The colours that have been suggested include black, white, gold, and lavender.Leak also makes broader claims about Apple's future lineupIn addition to hardware details, the video outlines a much broader roadmap for Apple's future smartphones. It claims the company's launch strategy could change, with the iPhone Air becoming a more prominent model within Apple's portfolio.As per the presenter, there might be three main models of Apple smartphones in the coming future: the iPhone, iPhone Pro, and iPhone Ultra, where the Air acts as an intermediate step toward achieving that goal. The video further discusses the schedule of future product launches as well as premium product positioning.These claims go well beyond what can be verified from the leak itself. Apple has not announced any changes to its future product roadmap, naming strategy or release schedule, making these aspects of the report entirely speculative at this stage.What is confirmed - and what isn'tAs of now, there is no news about the iPhone Air 2 release from the company, as Apple has not revealed anything about the device and all the specifications talked about in the leak. The pictures that came along with the report are referred to as the leak renders.As with most early smartphone leaks, some reported details may ultimately prove accurate, while others could change before any potential launch - or never materialise at all. Until Apple makes an official announcement, the reported camera upgrades, redesigned Face ID system, chipset choices and broader product roadmap should all be viewed as unconfirmed information.Frequently Asked QuestionsQ1.
