IPhone 17 Series Predicted To Present 24MP Selfie Camera

JAKARTA - According to a recent report from Apple analyst Jeff Pu, the upcoming iPhone 17 series is expected to be equipped with a 24MP resolution selfie camera across its models. Currently, the iPhone 15 series only offers 12MP resolution selfie cameras.

Quoted from MacRumors who obtained research records from Pu, which states that all four iPhone 17 models will use a 24MP selfie camera equipped with six plastic lens elements. Although further details about the size of the sensor and pixel size have not been disclosed, this upgrade could be a useful upgrade.

Higher-resolution selfie cameras allow for more detailed photos when cropped, as well as sharper portraits in low light conditions through pixel binning technology. Although photos with pixel binning from the 24-MP camera are equivalent to 8MP photos, this increased resolution still provides benefits for users who want sharper and clearer results.

This 24MP selfie camera is not the highest in the smartphone market; some phones have previously offered selfie cameras with 32MP, 40MP, and even 50MP resolutions. Samsung, for example, once offered a 40MP selfie camera on its Ultra phone, although the Galaxy S24 Ultra is now back using a 12MP lens.

It's interesting to note, of course, about the pixel binning technology features that will be included in the iPhone 17.

Pixel binning technology is a method used in smartphone cameras and other image sensors to improve photo quality, especially in low lighting conditions. Here is an explanation of how this technology works and the benefits:

Pixel binning is one of many technologies used by smartphone manufacturers to improve image quality, and is often combined with other technologies such as image stabilization and software improvement for the best results.
