iPhone 14 Pro Could be Apple’s First Phone with a 48MP Camera
Dec. 15, 2021iPhone 14 Pro with 48MP Cameras Might Happen
According to analyst Jeff Pu, the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max are expected tocome with a 48MP main camera. This new information backs a previous report by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, which hinted at the same possibility. If this turns out to be true, it will be a first for Apple and a major upgrade from the 12MP cameras seen on the current-gen iPhone 13 series.
While this information might excite iPhone fanatics, you must know that more megapixels don’t necessarily mean better images. Since the tech tries to stuff more pixels into the same-sized camera sensor with an aim to get more details, the end result tends to be grainy in low-light conditions. Plus, these photos are big in size, which can end up occupying more space on a phone.
It is suggested that Apple might try to solve the issue by supporting both 48MP and 12MP camera outputs, with the help of pixel binning on iPhone 14 Pro. This process willmerge small pixels into one superpixelto improve low-light photo results. This tech is seen on various Android phones such as the Galaxy S21 and even various Xiaomi phones.
In addition to this, Pu suggests that the main camera will be accompanied by an ultra-wide camera and a telephoto lens, both rated at 12MP. One thing to note is that these camera upgrades are expected to be limited to the Pro models.
Other than this, the iPhone 14 Pro models are expected tocome with 8GB of RAM(up from 6GB of RAM seen on the iPhone 13 Pro models). We can also expect all iPhone 14 models (iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max) to come with a 120Hz display, which is currently restricted to the Pro phones. The iPhone 14 series is expected to see a major design haul withApple saying goodbye to the notch and welcoming a punch-hole screen. The phones are also expected toadopt a USB Type-C port.
However, these aren’t official details and we still have a lot of time before we get hold of genuine details. Until then, it’s best to take these (and more details) with a grain of salt. Are you excited about an iPhone with 48MP cameras? Let us know in the comments below.
