Fortunately, a new video highlights key features of the upcoming handset, including a second camera that can only be accommodated thanks to a shrunken Face ID module, not to mention using the A20 Pro\u00a0instead of the A20 that was previously rumored.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-additional-features-could-make-the-iphone-air-2-even-more-popular-than-its-predecessor-but-pricing-will-play-a-paramount-role\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional features could make the iPhone Air 2 even more popular than its predecessor, but pricing will play a paramount role<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sticking with the same titanium alloy chassis as the iPhone Air, Jon Prosser summarizes various features arriving to the iPhone Air 2 in the latest fpt video. The main 48MP camera will be supplemented by another 48MP ultrawide-angle unit\u00a0to improve photography and videography. Given that the entire logic board is present in the iPhone Air\u2019s camera plateau, Apple will resort to clever engineering to add a second sensor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This includes reducing the size of Face ID, making enough room so the second camera can be added. However, there\u2019s no telling what trade-offs Apple will make to the sensor size, since it\u2019s working with negligible internal volume, so we\u2019ll have to wait and see whether a smaller physical camera with a reduced aperture is part of the package.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The inclusion of the A20 Pro\u00a0has us somewhat relieved because it means Apple will offer top-end specifications at a premium price instead of incorporating a slower SoC. Thanks to the new WMCM (Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module) packaging, where the DRAM is kept separate from the chipset, the iPhone Air 2 could deliver better thermal performance while maintaining that slimmer chassis.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" id=\"bizdev_mid_desktop_image\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/files\/placeholder-desktop.png\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Introducing iPhone Air 2 | First Look\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AJShYVlqmUk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of a 2nm silicon will also bring better battery life, but Prosser hasn\u2019t shared the&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wccftech.com\/iphone-air-2-video-showing-shrunken-face-id-with-a20-pro-chipset-and-more\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iPhone Air 2 To Have A Shrunken Face ID To House A Second 48MP Camera,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":285467,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/iPhone-Air-2-5.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-285466","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/285466"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=285466"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/285466\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":285468,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/285466\/revisions\/285468"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/285467"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=285466"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=285466"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=285466"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
