  we have all new information on the upcoming iphone
• 0:04
  air 2. an insider reveals how apple plans to
• 0:09
  revive the ultra thin flop so last year's debut
• 0:25
  of the ultra thin iphone air turned out to be
• 0:28
  a sobering reality check for cuppertino right
• 0:31
  mainstream buyers were reluctant to pay near
• 0:35
  flagship money for a wafer thin chassis that
• 0:38
  sacrificed a second rear camera stereo speakers
• 0:42
  and all -day battery life according to a fresh
• 0:47
  new leak published on october the 30th by a reliable
• 0:51
  supply chain tipster digital chat station apple
• 0:55
  is now finalizing development of the upcoming
• 0:59
  apple iphone air 2 with three targeted hardware
• 1:03
  upgrades designed to fix its predecessors most
• 1:07
  glaring flaws So Apple with this upcoming iPhone
• 1:11
  Air 2 is going to take a shot at the shortcomings
• 1:16
  from the OG iPhone Air. Supply chain reports
• 1:20
  indicate that the second generation model has
• 1:23
  recently entered engineering validation testing,
• 1:27
  EVT. Upfront, the iPhone Air 2 will stick closely
• 1:31
  to the display formula of the original, a flat
• 1:34
  6 .55 -inch LTPO OLED panel with standard aspect
• 1:39
  ratio proportions. It's going to have a 1 .5K
• 1:43
  resolution at 2736x1260 pixels, 120Hz ProMotion
• 1:49
  adaptive refresh rate, Face ID tucked inside
• 1:53
  a slightly smaller dynamic island cutout. However,
• 1:57
  under the hood and around the back, Apple engineers
• 2:00
  are targeting the exact three complaints that
• 2:04
  sank the first generation model. So with this
• 2:08
  upcoming iPhone Air 2, you're getting dual 48
• 2:11
  megapixel rear camera system. The iPhone Air
• 2:15
  2 adds a 48 -megapixel ultra -wide camera, F2
• 2:20
  .2, and a 1 over 2 .55 -inch sensor with autofocus.
• 2:24
  Now, it's going to be alongside a 48 -megapixel
• 2:27
  main shooter. Apple is also going to squeeze
• 2:31
  in a larger battery in a slimmer body. A recent
• 2:36
  Korean supply chain leak. claims that Apple has
• 2:40
  shaved the chassis down from 5 .64 millimeters
• 2:44
  to a razor -thin 5 .2 millimeters. There will
• 2:49
  be a denser battery chemistry and reportedly
• 2:52
  boost capacity from the original 3 ,149 mAh cell
• 2:58
  to around 3 ,500 mAh cell. I can't help but think
• 3:04
  when I see that number, it looks mad small. compared
• 3:08
  to all of these typical android flagship batteries
• 3:11
  that we're seeing now some upwards of 10 000
• 3:14
  milliamp per hours seeing a 3500 milliamp per
• 3:18
  hour battery cell i had to do a double take i
• 3:22
  was like huh well that's apple apple's also upgrading
• 3:27
  the cpu so you're gonna get the apple a20s series
• 3:31
  chipset it's gonna be a two nanometer processor
• 3:34
  architecture It's going to be a six -core GPU
• 3:38
  variant of the Apple A20 Pro chipset paired with
• 3:41
  12 gigabytes of RAM. And how could we forget
• 3:45
  the Israeli -made Apple C2 5G modem and the N2
• 3:53
  wireless networking chip? When is this iPhone
• 3:57
  Air 2 going to launch? It appears that it's going
• 4:00
  to launch in spring of 2027. If you noticed with
• 4:05
  the launch of the iPhone 18 series, Apple split
• 4:08
  their launches and are going to launch the Pro
• 4:11
  series devices at a separate launch date and
• 4:15
  the regular iPhone series models with another
• 4:18
  launch date. It's kind of like what Samsung does
• 4:21
  with their devices. Apple's doing the same thing.
• 4:23
  It allows you to have a launch every six months.
• 4:27
  it just makes me wonder how much longer is apple
• 4:31
  going to support this slim form factor we all
• 4:35
  know samsung tried that in the s25 edge the s25
• 4:39
  edge was one of my is probably one of my picks
• 4:43
  for the most underrated phones of last year it
• 4:47
  was actually a really fantastic device samsung
• 4:50
  put a 200 megapixel sensor in there and it actually
• 4:53
  had decent battery life but after poor sales
• 4:57
  Samsung dropped that and I don't know and or
• 5:01
  think Samsung will ever I shouldn't say ever
• 5:04
  but for the foreseeable future it doesn't look
• 5:06
  like any more edge models will be coming out
• 5:09
  of Samsung just makes me wonder how much longer
• 5:12
  Apple is going to support this model i know they're
• 5:15
  probably they're they have too much pride to
• 5:18
  give up on a model just after one or possibly
• 5:20
  two series of this device but if we see another
• 5:25
  poor sales output for the air series devices
• 5:29
  makes me wonder i just don't know how much longer
• 5:33
  apple is going to support this now it should
• 5:38
  get some buyers that were intrigued with the
• 5:42
  first air although the first air had some major
• 5:45
  shortcomings as we discussed only one camera
• 5:47
  sensor no stereo speakers battery life sucked
• 5:51
  and just thinking logically well if you improve
• 5:54
  upon what people thought negatively of the first
• 5:58
  device you should be able to get some sales from
• 6:01
  the upcoming device if you improve upon its shortcomings.
• 6:04
  In theory, yes, but I just don't know if this
• 6:08
  slim form factor is going to be a hit with buyers.
• 6:11
  As I mentioned, it should get some people that
• 6:14
  were on the fence about buying the first generation.
• 6:16
  You're going to get some that'll give this a
• 6:19
  try. You know, there's Apple fanboys that just
• 6:21
  buy anything and everything Apple puts out, even
• 6:24
  if the product sucks like the iPhone Duo. But
• 6:28
  with new leadership and new CEO at the helm,
• 6:30
  it seems like he's more susceptible to just doing
• 6:35
  what works, more susceptible to making hard decisions.
• 6:39
  And I can see Apple, if this does not sell well,
• 6:43
  the iPhone Air 2, it's definitely going to launch
• 6:46
  here this upcoming year. But if this flops as
• 6:49
  well, I think you could see Apple pull the cord
• 6:52
  on a third version of the iPhone Air If this
• 6:58
  second one doesn't sell. It's just not going
• 7:00
  to catch on with buyers. Now it might in the
• 7:04
  future. Maybe 5 or 10 years from now. But at
• 7:08
  this point. I think battery life is a huge deal.
• 7:11
  Good cameras is a huge deal. It would be a completely
• 7:15
  different thing. If you got a fantastic camera
• 7:18
  experience. With these slim form factors. And
• 7:21
  you got 1 .5 day battery life. From these slim
• 7:25
  form factors. But at this point. It's just not
• 7:28
  happening. I personally think they will sell
• 7:31
  a little more this year than last year, but I
• 7:35
  don't see this being a big success. I will say
• 7:39
  from using the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, if you
• 7:44
  have never used a slim form factor phone, it's
• 7:48
  actually pretty freaking amazing. The S25 Edge
• 7:51
  seems like it's light as a piece of paper and
• 7:55
  it just hits different. when you're using a device
• 7:58
  that's razor thin it's just a whole completely
• 8:02
  different experience so i actually really like
• 8:05
  these slim form factors but samsung's not making
• 8:10
  them anymore and you know i'm not using an iphone
• 8:13
  so i'm not buying this thing what about you do
• 8:17
  you have any interest in the upcoming iphone
• 8:20
  air 2 if apple improves upon its shortcomings
• 8:24
  from the original iphone air would that entice
• 8:27
  you to purchase the air 2 or at the very least
• 8:31
  think about purchasing the air 2. let me know
• 8:35
  down below what you think and i'll see you on
• 8:37
  the next one peace
