Apple Testing 200MP Telephoto iPhone Lens That Could Ship Next Year
Apple is reportedly testing a 200‑megapixel telephoto camera sensor for future iPhones, according to reliable leaker Digital Chat Station. The company is evaluating a large 1/1.2" sensor-similar to the one rumored for Oppo’s upcoming Find X9 Ultra—which would mark a major leap from Apple’s current 48‑megapixel systems. A 200MP telephoto lens would deliver significantly higher detail, improved cropping flexibility, and better large‑format prints. If testing goes well, the sensor could debut as early as next year, potentially aligning with Apple’s rumored 20th‑anniversary iPhone lineup.
