According to rumors coming out of Asia, Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature a 24MP main camera sensor and both iPhone 16 Pro models will include a 48MP Ultra Wide camera.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature a 48-megapixel Sony IMX903 camera, according to Weibo user OvO Baby Sauce OvO. Compared to the iPhone 15 Pro, the iPhone 16 Pro will use the same 48-megapixel Sony IMX803 sensor.
Additionally, the leaker claims this year’s iPhone 16 Pro will have a 48-megapixel Ultra Wide camera, which will capture more light when shooting in 0.5x mode, especially in low-light conditions. Current iPhone 15 Pro models have a 12-megapixel Ultra Wide lens.
A new main camera sensor is rumored for the iPhone 16 Pro Max for the second time. Several accurate details about the upcoming iPhone camera technology were leaked by “Digital Chat Station” in January.
Moreover, the latter source said that the Sony IMX903 would have advanced features such as stacked design for better performance, a 14-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) for high-quality image data conversion, and Digital Gain Control (DCG) for improved noise control and dynamic range.
Both iPhone 16 Pro models are also expected to feature a 48-megapixel Ultra Wide camera. It was first reported last December by Weibo user “Instant Digital,” suggesting that this year’s Pro devices will feature two 48-megapixel sensors. Both iPhone 16 Pro models will be able to take 48-megapixel ProRAW photos in Ultra Wide mode if the upgrade is true.
