Photos are surfacing of the new iPhone… and there’s one stark difference

iPhone X what?

There’s always a major buzz when a new iPhone is on the horizon, and it’ll be no different for the next one.

New iPhones are usually released in September, so we don’t have long to wait for the next round of new technology.

Ben Geskin, who is known for leaking pictures of new phones on Twitter, took to social media to show his followers what the next generation of the iPhone will look like with dummy models.

And while nothing particularly different stands out, there seems to be a major difference in the cameras.

Mashable pointed out that the 6.1 inch version has only a single rear camera, while the 6.5 inch version has a dual rear camera.

A dual rear camera adds clarity of the image with the help of monochrome feature and is also used for zooming purposes.

A dual lens camera also has a setup where one camera is used to take the pictures and the other one is to capture the depth of field… basically, it helps you take better photos.

So, for one of the phones to only have a single rear camera is completely different to Apple’s ongoing upgrades in the photography section.

However, the 6.1 iPhone is rumoured to be a ‘budget’ phone, so that might be the reason for the downgrade in camera technology.
