Apple is rumored to reveal everything about the iPhone 16 in just a few weeks — and this major leak will likely heighten the anticipation.
Apple Insider claims that it has secured the iPhone 16’s camera specs on Thursday. There are a few key details to note, especially that the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will share the same camera specs this year. However, these leaks offer even more to consider.
iPhone 16 camera specs
According to Apple Insider, these are the specs you can expect from the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus:
-
48MP wide camera
-
Ultra-wide camera with f/2.2 aperture
The iPhone 16’s wide camera, also known as the main lens, appears to have the same specs as the iPhone 15. However, the ultra-wide lens now features a faster aperture, upgraded from f/2.4 to f/2.2. That should improve low-light shooting capabilities. According to Apple Insider, the non-Pro phones will also get macro photography this year. The two lenses are also stacked vertically, rather than diagonally.
These rumors really get juicy when you get to the iPhone 16 Pro models, though. Here are the specs Apple Insider reported for the Pro phones, both of which supposedly have the same specs this year:
-
48MP main lens
-
12MP telephoto lens with 5X optical zoom
-
48MP ultra-wide lens
There are two major things to note here. First, both Pro phones have 5X telephoto zoom this year, as opposed to last year where only the Pro Max had that. Second, the ultra-wide lens has gone all the way up from 12MP to 48MP on the Pro phones this year.
Lastly, Apple Insider reported that the rumored “capture button,” a capacitive button specifically for use with camera features, is real and is coming to all four iPhone 16 models. You’ll theoretically be able to open the camera app with the press of a button, among other things. You can also slide your finger along the button for other potential actions.
Apple is rumored to announce the iPhone 16 at an event on Sept. 10.
