After the launch of the MacBook Neo, Apple is preparing to unveil another flagship product. Recent reports indicate that the company is set to introduce its next iPhone, called the iPhone Air 2. While specific details are limited at this time, several leaks suggest that this device will fall within the premium smartphone range.
As the name suggests, the iPhone Air 2 is likely to come with a lighter body. Rumors suggest that the upcoming model would have an ‘Air light’ and ‘thin’, yet premium look. The release
date for the iPhone continues to be one of the most talked-about topics. The original iPhone Air was launched in September 2025 as part of the iPhone 17 lineup.
The original starting price baseline for the original Air is $999 (Rs. 1,19,900) for 256 GB of storage. But the new model is expected to be priced higher since the new components cost more. The prices of the internal hardware and RAM will also rise. Apple’s competitor, Samsung, has already raised the prices of its Galaxy S26 series. This decision comes in response to changing economic conditions. Apple is also responding to these pressures, and hence, the rise in price.
The iPhone Air 2 is expected to look similar to its predecessor. The present Air model measures just 5.6mm and is the thinnest. Leaks suggest that the upcoming version could be similar to this size or a much thinner model.
Other rumors suggest that the iPhone Air 2 will feature a 6.5-inch display with up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. The original Air had ProMotion with a dynamic refresh rate of 120Hz. The Air2 is expected to feature the same configurations.
Camera features will also be the same as the original Air models. This includes a 48MP main sensor with a 48MP ultrawide lens, enabled by a redesigned Face ID module. This means that the Air 2 will be similar to the standard iPhone 17’s dual-camera setup.
