Apple is expanding its supply chain to meet the demand for the periscope zoom lens in the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. While it was initially uncertain if the new models would feature a tetraprism lens with a higher zoom level, recent updates suggest that the iPhone 16 Pro will have a 5x lens, similar to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Reports also hint at an improved lens for the iPhone 16 Pro Max, possibly offering a 'super telephoto' unit. The upgrades in camera technology are expected to enhance the image and video-capturing experience for users. Despite the potential cost increase for Apple, the company may retain the price of the iPhone 16 Pro at $999, making it a popular choice among consumers. The exact specifications and pricing details for the new models are yet to be confirmed by Apple.
