We have arrived at that time of year when rumors about the design and features of Apple's new smartphones are "wasted". Some, however, come from accredited sources, which generally have always been right, one of these is the analyst Ming-chi Kuo.
Kuo claims that the 2022 iPhone models (probably the PRO versions), will use a 48MPX sensor for the main camera, probably developed by Sony. The alternative for a sensor with these characteristics would be Samsung, but it is known that there is no good blood between the two companies, given the direct competition of their products on the market.
The sensor will be 1 / 1,3 ″ with a pixel size of 1,25μm, therefore smaller than those currently on the iPhone 12 Pro Max, which are 1,7 μm, but with a higher pixel density (the current sensor in fact it counts "only" 12 MPX). Second Kuo, the difference in size and the increase in megapixels would lead to a pixel density of over 2,5μm. The analyst therefore expects the ability to record 8K video with these devices.
In addition to the camera, next year's models may decrease purchase options by eliminating the model Mini, which did not have the success the company expected. In fact, Apple has already had to cut the budget order, due to an overestimation of the demand.
The new models coming out this fall, on the other hand, will still keep the small and handy version of the iPhone and perhaps will have a smaller notch than current smartphones.
iPhone of the future
Kuo does not stop there. Going further in time, the 2023 models will finally mount a sensor for the "Face ID" and "Touch ID" under the display, with a new proprietary technology, finally removing the unpleasant notch that currently interrupts the elegance of the beautiful displays of Apple devices.
All these information are indiscretions elaborated also thanks to the collaboration that Kuo has with Apple investors. At the moment we advise you to take this information as unofficial rumors. Let's just hope that reality does not differ much from fantasy (especially as regards the sensors under the screen).
