In light of prior speculations regarding the iPhone 15’s improved camera, the most current rumour focuses on an anticipated design update for the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus.

The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will reportedly include a new camera bump, according to a leak. It can seem like a small design aspect that users don’t really care about right now. However, the reason that’s fascinating is related to the lower iPhone models’ cameras.

The 48-megapixel sensor that Apple debuted with the iPhone 14 Pros earlier this year should be carried over to both the base device and the 15 Plus.

In recent years, as it updated the sensors, Apple gradually grew the iPhone’s camera bump.

Sensor-shift optical image stabilisation (OIS) technology was introduced with the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Then, Apple added that primary camera to every iPhone 13 device in addition to a new camera setup for the non-Pro variants.

Further with the debut of Apple’s first 48-megapixel sensor in a phone, the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max received an even larger camera module. That sensor, according to Apple, is 65% bigger than the one on the iPhone 13 Pro.

Although not identical, the sensors in the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus are comparable to those in the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max. Compared to the iPhone 13, the iPhone 14’s bulge is a little bigger. The iPhone 13 Pro also has a third zoom lens, however, this model is smaller.

Higher light is captured by a bigger sensor, which also has more megapixels. However, it also occupies more room in the back. The camera bump’s size is increasing as a result. With such a background, it’s simple to see why the rumour that the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus would feature a larger camera bump is so enticing.

The two phones are rumoured to include 48-megapixel primary sensors, the same as those found in the iPhone 14 Pros. That suggests that the rear camera module will need to grow, even if it only has room for two lenses. Reminder: Telephoto zoom lenses won’t be available on future non-Pro phones.

On Twitter, the leaker @ShrimpApplePro summarised the rumoured specifications for the iPhone 15 series and teased the larger camera bump for the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus. The 48-megapixel sensor for both the non-Pro and Pro models of the iPhone 15 is mentioned in the specifications he cited.
