No, the news about the camera upgrade came. According to Guo Ming, an analyst at Tianfeng International, Apple plans to add 48 million pixel camera lenses to the iPhone next year, and then equip the iPhone with periscope lenses in 2023! This news has also been recognized by analyst Jeff Pu, who said that at least one of the iPhone 15 models launched in 2023 will be equipped with a periscope camera system, thus increasing optical zoom!

This news is not groundless. It is reported that Apple has obtained the patent authorization of periscope lens, which indicates that the patent named "Folding Camera" has been approved by the US Patent and Trademark Office, which means that the iPhone equipped with periscope lens is on its way!
What is a periscope lens? It uses the complex arrangement of prism and reflector to create a longer path for light to pass through the lens assembly, thus achieving a wider range of optical zoom than the traditional lens, allowing users to enlarge the picture without any blurred picture, which is convenient for users to view the larger details of the picture and provides greater possibilities for the post-processing of the picture!

In fact, some Android smart high-end machines are equipped with periscope lenses. For example, Samsung's Galaxy S2 1 Ultr and Huawei's P40 Pro+ are equipped with periscope lenses, and both devices have optical zoom of 10 times. In contrast, the current iPhone 13 Pro models are limited to 3 times optical zoom at most!

As early as the beginning of 2020, rumors that the iPhone will be equipped with a periscope lens have been circulating. Initially, it was predicted that the periscope lens would be equipped with iPhone 14 Pro model. If the latest news is true, it means that you can't see the periscope lens until next year's iPhone 15 Pro!
