The rumours surrounding the iPhone 14 launch event are becoming more and more precise, and the latest one comes from trusted analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. New ultrawide camera sensors will reportedly be featured on the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max. It can capture 1.4µm pixels. Detailed shots and improved low-light performance should result. With their ultrawide cameras, the current iPhone 13 Pro duo captures 1.0µ pixels.
New voice coil motors (VCMs) and a compact camera module will accompany the new CMOS imaging sensor. The components in the new iPhone 13 Pro models will cost up to 70% more than those in the outgoing model. CMOS sensors will be supplied by Sony, while VCMs will be supplied by Minebea and Largan. It is widely believed that LG is the main supplier of compact camera modules.
A 48MP primary camera with 4-in-1 pixel binning is also expected to be included in the iPhone 14 Pro series. This should result in better low-light performance and more colour-accurate images. A bright f/1.9 aperture and autofocus will be added to the front cameras of both 14 Pro models.
