While attention is currently focused on the iPhone 15 range, rumours are already circulating about the next model in the range. The 15 series isn't set to launch for another few months, and already we're hearing about it's successor, more than a year in advance.
But this particular rumour is a big one – in fact, it could make the iPhone 16 Pro Max the best iPhone yet. It's all to do with the telephoto camera in the device. According to respected tech tipster, Digital Chat Station, the next next-gen iPhone flagship will feature a super telephoto lens.
That's a massive upgrade. While telephoto duties on the current range are strong, having a much further range of optical zoom will dramatically alter the possibilities with the iPhone camera. Users will be able to shoot a far wider range of subjects without needing to reach for a more professional setup. Telephoto lenses are famously used in sports and wildlife photography, for example.
It's far from the only upgrade expected for the next version of the device. We've heard reports of a larger display coming to both the Pro and Pro Max variants, which are expected to be 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch units, respectively. That's likely driven by a need for more space, to accommodate the sensor in question.
