Your next iPhone Air might finally get a second lens

What’s happened? Apple is evaluating a second rear camera for the 2026 iPhone 18 Air. The slim model would keep its 6.5-inch high refresh display, Face ID, and the horizontal camera bar while testing a dual 48MP setup.

This is important because: A second camera broadens what the iPhone Air can shoot without pushing it out of its svelte niche. If Apple keeps the camera bar, it can fit extra optics while preserving internal space.

Why should I care? If you want a light phone that still handles a range of shots, this hits the middle ground. The iPhone 18 Air aims to stay easy to carry while a second camera widens your options.

Okay, so what’s next? Apple is still evaluating the hardware for a 2026 window. Expect clearer details through 2025 as designs lock.
