Latest iPhone 11 leak says the next iPhone XR is getting a camera bump

Another camera lens incoming

There’s
now no shortage of leaks and rumors around the upcoming iPhone 11phones, and we
just got another tidbit of information to chew over: the successor to the iPhone XR is
apparently getting a dual-lens rear camera this year.
That’s according to
Japanese blog Mac Otakara, which says it
has its information directly from those in the know in the supply chain in
China.
The
iPhone XR 2 – or iPhone XI R? – is going to come with a wide angle lens and a
telephoto lens just like the current iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, the report
says, which should mean a better portrait mode and 2x optical zoom will be on
offer.

It’s actually a rumor we’ve heard before, so you can count this as a
conformation of sorts for what Apple is planning. The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11
Max, meanwhile, will get upgrades to triple-lens rear cameras.

Glass and
ports

According
to Mac Otakara, two out of the three lenses on the more expensive iPhones of
2019 will also be shared with the new iPhone XR model, which should help to
keep manufacturing costs down.
All
three iPhone 2019 models are being tipped to use 3D-molded glass for the back
of the phones, possibly covering up the rear camera bump, the new report says.
There’s
also a prediction that Apple could include more powerful 18W USB-C chargers
with its iPhone models this year – although the Lightning port will be
retained, and Apple will bundle USB-C-to-Lightning connectors with the devices.
Add it to the pile of iPhone11 rumors we’ve heard so far, covering everything from airsensors to bigger batteries. As usual, the new handsets are
expected to be officially unveiled in September.
