Apple is reportedly working on new hardware options for future phones, with a focus on upgrading its camera technology. While the company has been putting more emphasis on software updates recently, including iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence, it is important not to neglect hardware advancements.
According to a recent post on Weibo by Digital Chat Station, Apple is testing new technologies such as multi-fold mid-bottom periscope, variable aperture main camera, folding screen, and miniaturized ToF 3D face recognition component. Speculation suggests these upgrades could be for the iPhone 18 Pro, offering improved depth of field control and zoom capabilities.
However, Apple may not be the first to introduce these features, as rumors also suggest that the Multifold Periscope Zoom technology could be included in the Galaxy S25 Slim by Samsung. While it is exciting to see Apple working on major improvements, there is no guarantee that these advancements will make it to market until officially announced by the company.
For now, consumers can stay informed about the latest news and rumors surrounding Apple’s upcoming iPhones by following Tom’s Guide. Keep an eye out for updates on the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro Max hubs for the latest information on these highly anticipated devices.
