iPhone 15 Pro Max to Feature New Camera Arrangement [Rumor]
Posted May 17, 2023 at 12:55pm by iClarified
Apple plans to introduce a new rear camera arrangement for the iPhone 15 Pro Max with periscope lens, according to a new report from leaker Unknownz21.
As corroborated by many other sources, the leaker expects Apple to introduce a periscope lens this year that will be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The lens will likely feature optical zoom capabilities of 5-6X.
In a tweet last night, the leaker predicted that Apple will reposition the telephoto lens to sit between the flash and the LiDAR sensor.

On a related note - the camera arrangement has changed, compared to the 14 Pro / Pro Max.
The Ultra Wide and Telephoto cameras have swapped positions - so the camera between the flash and LiDAR sensor is the one with periscope lens on the 15 Pro Max (regular telephoto on 15 Pro)
-----
While only the iPhone 15 Pro Max is likely to get a periscope lens this year, Apple is purportedly planning to bring the lens to both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Both analyst Ming-Chi Kuo and Unknownz21 have said that Apple will increase the display sizes for the iPhone 16 Pro models which will help accommodate the periscope lens on the smaller model.
