Vratislav Holub The camera quality of Apple phones has increased rapidly in recent years, and it seems that Apple has no intention of stopping. Already last November, renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that iPhone 13 The Pro will bring another noticeable improvement, specifically in the case of the ultra-wide-angle lens, which should offer a better f/1,8 aperture. For comparison, the iPhone 12 Pro models are equipped with an aperture of f/2,4. Currently, the portal came with additional information on this topic DigiTimes, which draws this data directly from the supply chain.

According to their information, the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max models should receive a great improvement, which will concern the aforementioned ultra-wide-angle lens. It should include a sophisticated stabilization sensor for compensating hand movement, which can take care of up to 5 thousand movements per second, and an automatic focus function. Apple first showed off this gadget in October 2020 at the presentation of the iPhone 12 Pro Max, but we saw the novelty only in the case of the wide-angle camera. Based on leaks from DigiTimes, this sensor should be used on both the wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses in the case of this year's Pro models, which will noticeably advance the quality of photos.

Based on additional information from several verified sources, we can look forward to great news in the case of the iPhone 13. Apple should bet on four more models this year, including the rather unsuccessful mini variant, while they are expected to have a LiDAR sensor and a 120Hz ProMotion display (at least in the case of the Pro models). There is also quite often talk about a smaller cutout, which has been a frequent target of criticism since 2017, when the iPhone X was introduced.
However, it should be noted that almost identical reports were already circulating on the Internet before the introduction of the iPhone 11 and 12. It is therefore not clear whether Apple will finally manage to reduce the cutout in such a way that the qualities of Face ID biometric authentication are preserved. We are still a few months away from the introduction of new Apple phones, so it is possible that many predictions will change several more times. Would a camera improvement like this make you want to buy a new iPhone?
I've been using my phone as my only camera for years, so it's definitely good that the quality and options are improving. Anyway, I'll wait the roughly 2 years before I buy a new one ;-).
