for a few years now, Apple It has refused to be a part of the megapixel race, part of which most other smartphone makers have become. Samsung, Xiaomi, others have phones that have 108MP cameras while OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo have 64MP or 48MP cameras. Apple is adamant on providing 12MP camera in the iPhone. However, that could soon change if well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is to be believed.
According to a report from 9to5Mac, Kuo suggested that iphone 14 The series could have a 48MP camera. This will not only be the ‘largest’ sensor that Apple will put in an iPhone, but will also enhance the camera bump on the back of the device. Taking to Twitter, Kuo explained the increase in the size of the camera bump. “The main reason for the 14 Pro/Pro Max’s larger and more prominent rear-camera bump is to upgrade the Wide Camera to 48MP (versus the 13 Pro/Pro Max’s 12MP). The 48MP will increase the CIS’s diagonal length by 25-35%, and The height of the 48MP 7P lens will increase by 5-10%,” he tweeted. Kuo’s tweet also suggests that a 48MP lens could come in iphone 14 pro series and not the ‘vanilla’ iPhone 14 series.
We are still almost six months away from the expected launch of the iPhone 14 series and the rumors are starting to take hold. However, Apple is set to host WWDC before that – its annual developer conference – sometime in June. While the company hasn’t sent out official invites, a tipster has suggested that WWDC 2022 may start on June 6. Tipster John Prosser has claimed that WWDC 2022 could also be Apple’s first in-person event in more than two years. However, Apple hasn’t said anything about a launch date or whether it will be a virtual or in-person event.
