iPhone Air 2 might come with improved battery life and camera

Apple iOS Rumors

Even though the iPhone Air surprised us with dependable battery life given the design limitations, endurance remains one of the main concerns users have about the phone. Another big issue for consumers is the single-camera setup.

iPhone Air 2 might come with improved battery life and camera

Luckily, Apple seems determined to address them in the next-generation iPhone Air, at least according to the latest news.

In late December last year, a report came out suggesting that the iPhone Air will feature a second camera, likely an ultrawide unit. Now, a rumor coming from The Elec talks about the battery life improvements. People familiar with the matter say that the iPhone Air 2 will employ a new CoE display technology that will likely debut with this year's iPhone Fold, if that happens in the first place.

The CoE technology makes the display package thinner and improves sunlight legibility, resulting in less power draw in bright environments. The display doesn't have to boost its brightness as much to achieve the same level of legibility.

Additionally, a thinner display probably means more room for the battery. Apple might choose to utilize the extra free space with a larger battery.

Of course, it's all rumors for now, but given the rather underwhelming iPhone Air launch last year, Apple will surely try to address some of the missteps.
