In a post on Medium, Kuo says the periscope lens will debut in the iPhone 15 Pro Max in 2023 and then arrive on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max in 2024. A periscope style lens would allow Apple to increase the optical zoom capabilities of iPhone without a lens that extends out of the camera.
