The iPhone 14, set to be launched in the upcoming months, is expected to change its front camera. Ming-Chi Kuo, an Apple analyst, claims that the front camera of the iPhone 14 will feature a 6P lens and get support for auto-focus, which was lacking in the previous versions of the phone.
The iPhone 13 comes with fixed-focus in its front camera, which is unable to track the object and lock focus. With auto-focus, the iPhone 14’s front camera will neglect these issues. This feature should result in a sharper and more detailed image.
Kuo has also stated the addition of a 6P lens. The addition of a 6P lens means there will be 6 layers of plastic that prevents aberration while taking pictures. Android phones by Xiaomi, Vivo and several other brands have already incorporated this feature into their smartphones. It is not confirmed if these upgrades are exclusive to the iPhone 14 Pro or if they will also be available in the regular iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max.
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected to get a new rear camera. On the back, there will be a triple-camera setup with a LiDAR sensor. The primary 48MP camera is said to be capable of 8K video recording. It is also said to be 57% larger than the main camera on the iPhone 13 Pro. There will be a 12MP ultrawide camera as well as a 12MP telephoto camera.
The iPhone 14 will have a punch-hole in a pill-shaped cutout to feature the camera and Face ID. The notch will be similar to the one we saw on the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro.
