Apple iPhone 15 Series launched with several new features. On the latest model, the company introduced the dynamic island on the base models instead of the notch. The biggest highlight so far has been the switch to USB-C, along with a new tetraprism lens on the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Key Details
Both upcoming iPhone Pro models will also feature larger displays and a tetraprism lens as well. This button was codenamed Atlas and was said to feature a pressure sensor, just like the Touch ID on the iPhone 8. However, the latest documentation suggests that Apple will continue to use a mechanical Action button on upcoming iPhones. Instead, Apple will now add a new Capture button on the right side of the device.
Now according to the latest information, Mark Gurman from Bloomberg has reported that this button will be used for taking videos like a camera shutter. The capture button will not protrude outwards and will blend seamlessly with the frame.
Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that Apple will bring its tetraprism lens with 5x optical zoom to the iPhone 16 Pro. As of now, only the iPhone 15 Pro Max features the tetraprism lens, whereas the regular iPhone 15 Pro is limited to 3x optical zoom.
According to the analyst, the larger screen size on the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro will create enough space to house the tetraprism lens. Apart from these changes, the primary camera is expected to remain the same on the iPhone 16 Pro.
