Dummy models of iPhone Air 2 and iPhone 18 leak images

Apple is expected to launch the standard iPhone 18 and the iPhone Air 2 in spring 2027, and newly shared images of alleged dummy units offer a first look, according to tipster Smart Pikachu on Weibo.

iPhone Air 2 dummy shows dual camera and slimmer chassis

The Air 2 dummy appears to carry a dual-rear camera setup and a slimmer chassis than the original iPhone Air, while keeping a largely similar rear design; the addition of a second camera is the main visible change in the images. On the front, the unit is tipped to include a 6.55-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a smaller Dynamic Island. Previous leaks have suggested dual 48MP rear cameras and a titanium frame, but those specifications remain unconfirmed and are attributed to earlier reports.

iPhone 18 mockup resembles iPhone 17; specs remain rumors

The iPhone 18 dummy, by contrast, appears to retain the same overall look as the iPhone 17, including an almost identical rear camera module. Rumors attribute a 6.3-inch OLED display, dual 48MP rear cameras and Apple's A20 chipset to the standard iPhone 18, though the dummy itself mainly confirms exterior proportions rather than internal hardware. Apple's standard iPhone is also tipped to receive a price hike similar to the iPhone 18 Pro models.

Both models are expected at a spring 2027 launch event that is also said to include a more affordable iPhone 18e. As with all early units and mockups, the images should be treated as indicative rather than definitive; Apple has not commented.
