As we usually hear a lot about the main sensor on the iPhone 14 lineup, this time analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is bringing some nice details regarding the front-facing camera, which will see a nice improvement after two years without being properly updated.
According to the analyst, all four iPhone 14 models will likely receive an upgrade to autofocus and a larger aperture. Here’s what he posted on his Twitter account:
These changes would be great for Portrait and Cinematic modes shots. Not only that, but low light selfies would see a nice improvement. The analyst himself says this could also enhance the focus effect for FaceTime/video call/live streaming uses.
The front camera of four new iPhone 14 models in 2H22 would likely upgrade to AF (autofocus) & about f/1.9 aperture (vs. iPhone 13’s FF (fixed-focus) and f/2.2). AF support and a lower f-number can provide a better shallow depth-of-field effect for selfie/portrait mode. In addition, AF can also enhance the focus effect for FaceTime/video call/live streaming.
It’s important to note how much Apple focused on FaceTime features during the last WWDC, which means having this upgrade on the iPhone 14 line now would make a lot of sense.
Apart from that, the iPhone 14 Pro models will likely have a new design with a hole punch + pill design, while the regular versions will feature the iPhone 13 notch.
