iPhone 14 could have an improved selfie camera.
Apple’s next iPhones could have an improved selfie camera, with autofocus capabilities and a wider aperture, according to a forecast by well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Unlike Apple’s current fixed-focus design, an autofocus-enabled front-facing camera can allow the iPhone 14 to take clearer pictures even if you are closer or farther away from the camera.
A wider aperture – Kuo predicts f / 1.9 vs. f / 2.2 of the iPhone 13 – would add a touch of background blur and allow more light, making it a bit better for night selfies or FaceTime portrait mode.
Kuo and others have predicted that Apple will get rid of the black top on the iPhone 14 Pro, instead opting for a perforated design.
While this means that Apple will have to place the upgraded camera in a smaller space, this is not an unprecedented challenge – the selfie camera on Samsung’s Galaxy S22 has autofocus and lives within a circular cut.
