Now, with the iPhone 14 just around the corner, the expert in the American company has once again put his eyes on the releases of the Cupertino for 2015, giving some other details of what we could see in the iPhone 15. Some predictions that, if fulfilled, would change the strategy that Apple has been following for years and that, surely, users will not like very much.
The best camera, only in the Pro Max model
Currently the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max camera It features a telephoto lens that offers 3x optical zoom and 15x digital zoom. On the other hand, there are already Android mobiles that quintuple these figures without much effort. For this reason, with the aim of making a leap in quality, the technology brand has plans to bring a periscope lens to the iPhone. However, contrary to the current generation of phones, it seems that the function will be more limited than expected.
According to Kuo, the new periscope lens will be available exclusively on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, the larger and more expensive model, while the smaller iPhone 15 Pro will keep the normal telephoto lens for optical zoom. The analyst says that this component is a 1/3″ sensor that will have a 12-megapixel resolution with f/2.8 aperture, sensor-shift stabilization, and up to 6x optical zoom.
More differences between iPhone Pro and Pro max
Until now, the only differences we found between the iPhone Pro and Pro Max models revolved around size. The iPhone ProMax It has always had a larger screen and a higher capacity battery, but the rest of the features have always remained unchanged, especially in the camera department.
This made many choose to buy the Pro model as it is smaller and more manageable, but just as powerful. Now, if the analyst’s predictions come true, whoever wants to have the best camera seen on an iPhone and get the best photos will have to checkout and pay more money for it. iPhone 15 ProMax. And if you don’t like exaggeratedly large smartphones, you’ll have no choice but to put up with it.
Those who prefer smaller phones will have to wait until 2024 to get their hands on an iPhone with a periscope lens, as Kuo points out that both the iPhone 16 Pro like iPhone 16 Pro Max will have this technology. It is expected that both models will have the same lens used in the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Of course neither the iPhone 15 nor the iPhone 16 would have this measure exclusive to the most expensive phones in the manufacturer’s catalogue.
