The source RGcloudS today released a series of tweets, said that in addition to some Chinese phone brands, the upcoming iPhone 15 series is the first international phone with a hybrid lens.
The source said that the iPhone 15 series will adopt a 1G6P・F1.7 aperture design, which means that with the same IMX sensor, the amount of light intake can be improved by 15-20%, and can produce richer and better colors.
Note: here “G” stands for “Glass”, that is, glass lens; here “P” stands for “Plastic” and refers to the plastic lens, glass lens is more expensive than plastic. The more lenses you have, the higher the cost, and a quality camera should use glass lenses, which are better than plastic lenses.
The leak also revealed that the iPhone 16 Pro Max (or iPhone 16 Ultra) will use a 2G6P lens from AAC for the main camera; a 2G5P lens for the ultra wide-angle; and a 1G5P lens for the telephoto, with the latter two supplied by Sunny.
Another source said that Xiaomi is developing a 2G6P program, which may be unique to Xiaomi, but there is currently a mass production problem. 2G5P is still in testing, 1G5P is the probability that Apple wants to bring upgrades without new sensors to save costs.
In addition, he said that the iPhone 15 series will not have a stacked battery solution, but the iPhone 15 series will have 40W wired fast charging and 20W MagSafe charging.
