While we count down the days until Apple releases its iPhone 14 series later this year, we have to come across rumors and leaks that have been aplenty. In addition to the existing ones, a new piece of information now suggests that the upcoming iPhone 14 models could come with improved selfie cameras but this could be expensive. Let’s check it out below.
According to a recent report by Korea’s ET News, Apple has ditched the Chinese manufacturers that developed the front cameras for its iPhones due to reported quality issues in the camera components. The company has now chosen LG Innotek and a Japanese firm named Sharp to provide the front cameras of its upcoming iPhone 14 series.
For reference, the selfie cameras on the current iPhone 13 line use fixed-focus lenses and come with an aperture of f/2.2. Hence, the iPhone 14 front cameras would be able to let in more light, thanks to the lower aperture, and also focus on subjects in a scene automatically. Furthermore, the improved selfie shooters could enhance the Portrait selfies by improving the depth-of-field effect. Plus, they would be able to improve the quality of video calls on FaceTime, Zoom, and other platforms.
