Rumors about the 2022 iPhone are starting to trickle onto the web. But one rumor is starting to be confirmed more than the others,the presence of periscope sensors on the future of the Apple brand's phone.
The telephoto lens could be “folded” within the iPhone sensor, and it would even be Samsung that would provide parts for Apple according to the Korean magazine The Elec. An idea which is not new given that the very well informed Ming-Chi Kuo had already announced inlast Julythat Apple's 2022 phone would have a very impressive zoom, it already mentioned a “periscope” sensor.
As a reminder, today the zoom of the iPhone 12 Pro is 2x and slightly better with x2.5 on the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Which is quite low in view of competitive developments in this area, Huawei's P40 Pro offers an optical zoom of up to x10, which Apple hopes to achieve in 2022.
Ultra wide-angle for 2021, telephoto for 2022?
The whole challenge of such an evolution on the Cupertino side is to succeed in maintaining the compact size of the current sensors while integrating this new optical zoom which would be “folded” within the iPhone's photo sensor. The Apple brand did not wait to be overtaken by the competition to think about this theme, already in 2016, Apple had filed a patent to integrate periscope lenses into these lenses, since then no announcement has been made by Apple in this sense, and the rumors do not give us hope for a big change on this point, for the 2021 iPhone.
Despite everythingKuo announced that the next iPhoneshould undergo a “revolution” on its ultra wide-angle lens. So Apple plans to change its photo sensors one by one? A hypothesis that may make sense, the brand would prefer to wait until each of its objectives is perfectly ready to be implemented. The arrival of the new photo sensors, one by one, could also be a marketing argument for Apple which would have something new to present on its 2021 iPhone, with the ultra wide-angle, and on the 2022 model with this new telephoto lens .
