Next-Generation iPhone to Feature 12-Megapixel Camera - Rumor

According to what IHS Technology Research Director for China Kevin King has recently shared on Weibo, Apple’s next-generation iPhone will feature a 12-megapixel camera with smaller pixels. This rumor goes in line with the most-recent report from KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who also stated that the guys from Cupertino may equip their new gadget with a brand new photo sensor.

Rumors about the iPhone camera upgrade surface on the Internet every year. In case you don’t know, the guys from Cupertino have been using an 8-megapixel camera since the launch of the iPhone 4s back in 2011. Looks like it’s high time Apple invented something new.

Kevin King, IHS Technology Research Director for China, claimed on Chinese microblogging service Weibo that Apple's next-generation iPhone will feature a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera with smaller pixels (via G4Games), corroborating the same prediction made by well-informed KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo earlier this week.

Apart from the new camera, the next-gen iPhones will boast a new A9 processor, 2GB of RAM and a bunch of other improvements. The screen sizes will reportedly remain the same. The smaller model will get a 4.7-inch display and the larger model will be equipped with a 5.5-inch screen.
