Next iPad Air Again Rumored to Feature Landscape Front Camera
[[{“value”:”The next-generation iPad Air will be equipped with a landscape front camera, according to the leaker known as “ShrimpApplePro.”
If this information is accurate, the front camera on the next iPad Air would be located in the bezel to the right of the screen when the device is held upright. This change would result in the front camera being positioned at the top of the iPad when the device is in landscape orientation, making it centered with the user’s eyes for video calls.
On the current iPad Air, the front camera is in the top bezel above the screen, resulting in it being off-center in landscape orientation.
The leaker does not expect the next iPad Air to have any other significant design changes. They also cast doubt on Apple’s plans to release a larger 12.9-inch iPad Air, but that model has been widely rumored by multiple sources, so it would be surprising if it did not launch.
Previous rumors and iPadOS 17.4 code have already suggested that the next iPad Pro and iPad Air models will be gaining landscape-positioned front cameras, mirroring a change first introduced on the entry-level iPad 10.
