IPhone 17 Pro Reportedly Coming With All Behind Cameras 48MP Resolution

The latest rumors say that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will be equipped with a rear camera system that all uses a 48-megapixel resolution sensor. If true, this innovation will make the iPhone 17 Pro the best camera system ever owned by Apple.

This information was disclosed by a well-known leaker named "Digital Chat Station" via the Weibo platform on Friday, January 10. In his report, it was stated that all three rear cameras on the Pro model would use 48MP sensors. Meanwhile, the Telephoto camera will still support up to 5 times optical magnification and take advantage of the "glass plastic" lens.

The Ultra Wide camera and the main camera on the iPhone 16 Pro currently have a 48MP resolution, but the Telephoto camera is still using a 12MP sensor. With these latest rumors, the resolution of the Telephoto camera on the iPhone 17 Pro will increase fourfold to 48MP. In addition, the front camera is also rumored to be getting an increase in resolution from 12MP to 24MP, doubling the capabilities of the current TrueDepth camera system.

Although this information has not been confirmed, the rumors are considered reasonable because they are in line with similar claims from analysts before. In July, well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo once mentioned that telephoto lenses on the iPhone 17 will switch from 12MP sensors to 48MP. Jeff Pu also supported this claim last December by mentioning that the Telephoto camera will use a 48MP sensor.

In addition, the upgrade of the front camera to 24MP has also been part of previous rumors. With a consistent camera upgrade trend on the latest iPhone model, it is highly likely that Apple will implement a 48MP sensor for the Telephoto camera faster than expected.

Apart from these rumors, there is also another speculation about the possibility that Apple will overhaul the total rear camera layout on the iPhone 17. However, this claim is still a debate among analysts.

For photography lovers and technology enthusiasts, these rumors provide an early picture of what the iPhone 17 Pro can expect when it is released later. If this news proves true, Apple seems ready to bring the phone photography experience to even higher levels.
