APPLE experts have leaked some interesting details about the 2022 iPhone lineup, according to reports.
The iPhone 13 is expected to launch later this year but analysts are already focussing on the iPhone 14 as they suspect it will bring some major changes.
Famed Apple analyst Ming-chi Kuo has said the high-end iPhones in the 2022 range will use a 48-megapixel sensor for the main camera.
According to Mac Rumours, Kuo thinks this will allow impressive 8K video capture.
The analyst also thinks the notch on the front screen of iPhones will get smaller and by 2023 it may have disappeared.
The selfie camera, necessary for Face ID, may be hidden under the screen.
Another of Kuo’s theories is that screen size options of the iPhone lineup will decrease by 2022.
We might not see an iPhone Mini offering as we have done in previous years.
Apple isn’t thought to be impressed with how well the Mini range is selling but may still include a version in its 2021 iPhone lineup.
It’s thought the 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch screen sizes are here to stay for the foreseeable future.
Kuo has previously suggested that we may see under-display fingerprint scanners in future iPhones.
As with all rumours and leaks, we won’t know for sure until we get official word from Apple.
