iPhone 16 Pro to get two new cameras, Pro Max will bring improved ultrawide

According to a tipster on Weibo, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are getting a substantial camera upgrade. The former is supposed to get a new 48MP ultrawide camera with better capabilities, while the latter is also getting the 15 Pro Max’ 5x Tetraprism telephoto module.

The Weibo post clarifies that the 16 Pro Max won’t get a zoom upgrade, though, so the two Pros will have a matching telephoto camera this year.
