Despite the fact that iPhones have never belonged to the caste of camera phones, their photographic abilities have always been at a fairly high level. But the appearance on the market of three- and even four-camera smartphones with all kinds of depth sensors made it clear to Apple in which direction the next iPhone models should develop. At least that's what TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, known for the accuracy of his predictions about future Apple products, said.
According to Kuo, the iPhone XI and iPhone XI Max, which will be released this fall, will receive an additional camera with an ultra-wide viewing angle. Such cameras are already installed by many manufacturers in smartphones of the middle price segment, and therefore they cannot continue to ignore this trend in Cupertino. Fortunately, Apple's designers understand that a three-camera iPhone will not look so hot, and therefore decided to hide the third module under a special coating in the body color, Kuo predicted.

In addition to upgrading the main camera, Cupertino is preparing to update the front cameras of their flagships. According to the analyst, this year Apple will abandon the 7-megapixel module, relying on a 12-megapixel camera. Along with the increase in resolution, it is planned to increase the total number of lenses in the design, which for the 2019 model year devices will increase from 4 to 5.
