A Apple should not equip cameras with 100 MP sensors in new iPhone models in the future. At least that’s what Jon McCormack, vice president of camera software engineering at the company, said in an interview with the newspaper The globe.

According to him, the company has no plans to follow the same path as some rivals in implementing lenses with sensors with greater capacity for photography. Currently, Apple’s most advanced models come with a 48MP main sensor for photography.

Also according to the executive, Apple’s main objective is to improve the iPhone’s camera in other aspects. For example, the company plans to make investments in artificial intelligence as well as processing to use hardware and software computing.

In other words, the brand wants to make users’ work smarter and easier with the idea of ​​taking photos by touching a single button. Check out McCormack’s words:

It’s more a question of: what do you do with this resolution? Higher resolution picks up more detail, but you can also shoot very quickly and it’s a great benefit. I think resolution for resolution, let’s say, is not very useful. You will never see us say “we have a 100 megapixel camera” and take forever to take a photo

Another important detail mentioned by the executive was in relation to the design of the cameras, which is practically the same since the iPhone 13 line. However, he said that the company does not intend to make changes and should continue with the same style in the next generation of smartphones.

Some previous news has already talked regarding changes without increasing the number of Megapixels in iPhone cameras, such as the addition of stacked sensors for shooting in low light. Not only that, but it is speculated that the 2025 editions will have a powerful telephoto camera.
