New information from renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo comes in the form of a “prediction”, spread over four tweets, in which he claims that both iPhone 14 Pro models will come with a new ultra-wide camera that offers a big improvement over the iPhone 13 Pro. Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro looks set to receive some major camera upgrades. Getty Images MORE FROM FORBES New Samsung leak ‘confirms’ Galaxy S23’s stunning design By Paul Monckton The upgrade comes in the form of a higher spec image sensor with significantly larger pixels than the current model. Larger pixels usually improve low-light performance at any given megapixel resolution, so the new camera is likely to have noticeably better low-light performance According to Kuo, the new camera’s pixels will feature 1.4μm pixels, up from 1.0μm on the iPhone 13 Pro models. This represents a very significant improvement — nearly doubling the size of each pixel per area (It’s not just a 40% increase). Consequently, there is a significant price increase associated with the new camera unit, and the cost to Apple of key individual components will increase between 40% and 70%. These are a Sony CMOS image sensor, a voice coil motor supplied by Minebea and Largan, and a compact camera unit from LG Innotek. While undeniably useful, ultra-wide lenses often provided much lower quality results than the main wide camera. Additionally, as revealed in Dxomark’s camera tests, the iPhone 13 Pro’s ultra-wide camera lacks dynamic range compared to the best alternatives available. The new camera should address this weakness. I’d expect macro shots to get a similar boost as the iPhone 13 Pro automatically switches to the ultra-wide lens when taking extreme close-ups. It is therefore reasonable to expect that the iPhone 14 Pro can do the same. The new ultra-wide camera will complement the expected 48-megapixel primary camera already leaked for the iPhone 14 Pro models, resulting in an exciting overall upgrade. All will be revealed as part of Apple’s “Far out” launch event on September 7.
