The most glaring difference between the new iPhone Air and the 17 series alongside which it has debuted (apart from its thickness) is the fact that the former has just one rear camera. That will not hinder its ability to produce portrait-style photos, though, according to a new report. The Air is now said to be free of the limitations of Apple's last single-lens smartphone in doing so.
