2 of Apple’s next-generation iPhones are tipped to have 3 rear cameras
- The successor to the iPhone XS also may have a larger screen than expected, says Japanese blog, Macotakara
Apple’s rumoured triple-lens camera system may make its debut on two next-generation iPhones instead of just one model, as previous reports have suggested.
The Japanese blog, Macotakara, also said that Apple’s successor to the iPhone XS might have a slightly larger screen than initially expected.
The report, which was first discovered by the YouTube channel, 9to5Mac, said a rear-mounted camera with three lenses will appear on both a 6.1-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) iPhone model and a 6.5-inch OLED iPhone model.
OLED is the screen technology that Apple uses for its iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, which generally produces deeper blacks and better contrast than liquid-crystal display screens, which is the technology used for Apple’s lower-priced iPhone XR.
The idea that Apple could produce two of its new iPhones with triple cameras differs from what has been predicted in the past.
One newspaper report in January said that only the successor to Apple’s iPhone XS Max, which has a 6.5-inch screen, will get the triple-camera upgrade.
Another news report in January made similar claims and said that “the larger of the new high-end iPhones” will have a triple camera. That report also said this system could eventually come to other iPhone models, too.
