A new report revealed that Apple is considering supplying an iPhone for the next year, 2023, with a “periscope” camera lens, to be able to provide the zoom feature in an extreme way.
The report, published by financial analyst Ming Chi Qiu, indicated that “iPhone 15 Pro Max” will be the only iPhone that will get this new imaging feature.
And that this is due to “the high cost, and the instability of a particular company to supply Apple with the new lens.”
The Periscope lens offers a distinctive level of magnified shooting of scenes and distant subjects, so that the range in which it can be photographed can be increased, as well as maintaining image quality, compared to a conventional magnifying lens.
The periscope lens will allow the iPhone 15 Pro Max user to get 3 levels of optical zoom and 15 levels of digital zoom.
Currently, Samsung is one of the few companies that holds a patent for “periscope” lens technologies for imaging, but the iPhone has been going since the last period in the way of abandoning the Korean company as a source of components for its phones, and this will take time to obtain an alternative source, according to the website. Apple Insider”.
In the “Q” report, it is clear that the components of the “periscope” lens are significantly complex compared to traditional zoom lenses, which is likely to be expensive, but the true cost remains unknown until the choice of the supplier.
The introduction of the new lens will require a change in the production process of the rear camera units from the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and this currently requires the two companies, “Genius” and “Largan” to develop their production lines in Taichung and Xiamen, China, to keep pace with the expected large demand.
Apple is currently negotiating with five suppliers who can supply it with the new photographic lens, which justifies the company limiting the new lens to one version of the iPhone 15 phones next year.
And if the company succeeds in entering the new lens into mass production for the iPhone 15 Pro Max version, it is expected that we will see this feature in all iPhone 16 phones.
