Let's move on. Lewis, should we finally talk about iPhone 16 Pro's camera? We had
0:05
some leaks this week and people might find this information interesting and
0:10
the iPhone isn't that far away now. I mean what are we six months away from it
0:14
Yeah, it's weird isn't it? It's like every year there's a new one. I know it's
0:18
crazy right? It's like and we know it's gonna get better camera, better neural
0:22
engine, faster SoC. Look at me, I'm Mark Gurman. Siri is gonna be so so much
0:30
improved. You know what Lewis? It actually might be. This could be our year. I mean
0:35
if they're if they're moving to an LLM. Just keep hoping. Keep the dream alive as
0:40
Steve Perry likes to say, don't stop believing. Alrighty, yeah well so our
0:47
headline on this was I think gives you a little bit of insight into it. Our
0:52
headline is, whoa is this the new iPhone 16 Pro camera? I don't know if you guys
0:57
saw this. Are you pulling up the screen? Okay great. So you might notice that it's
1:03
got a redesigned camera module that looks a little bit like a fidget spinner
1:07
Maybe some kind of you know three-cornered hat. This comes from, I
1:12
don't know how to pronounce it, MaginBoo, a leaker with a mixed track record. They
1:18
posted this image Saturday on X and they say that it's the new look for the
1:23
camera module the iPhone Pro 16. What this leaker actually wrote is, based on
1:28
the information I was able to obtain, it seems that the new iPhone 16 Pro will
1:32
have a new design for the camera module. This should be very similar to what
1:36
Apple is currently testing. That you know this, this being the mock-up that this
1:41
person threw together. You know so obviously just mock-ups based on insider
1:49
information supposedly not the final design. And this leaker you know they've nailed some things in the past. They've missed some things in the past. Who knows
1:57
They also wrote about this design. It's similar but not identical. This
2:02
concept I made is much uglier. A little bit of a little bit of humbleness there
2:10
What do you know? In the future I hope to be able to bring official diagrams in
2:13
order to understand if all this is actually true. There's a caveat. Let's see
2:19
You know this comes after we've heard that the iPhone 16 models, regular not
2:23
the Pro ones, would have a changed little camera module. This would be like two in
2:30
a row instead of diagonally. Which frankly I always thought looked weird. But supposedly they're gonna put them in a line so it's better for capturing that
2:38
amazing spatial video that you can watch in your Apple Vision Pro if you
2:45
own one. Yeah so basically if you look at the back of your iPhone right now the
2:52
only part of like the actual camera that that needs to be the way that it is is like the tiny little like glass orb on the inside like that's the actual lens
3:00
There's no real reason that the that there needs to be like the three
3:03
separate circles on the back. And so this design if you haven't looked at the
3:07
picture it's basically like merging all of those into one single glass
3:11
triangular shaped piece that covers all of the individual lenses on the inside
3:16
Which seems odd to me because like I've seen a lot of people who take very poor
3:21
care of their phones who have like the telephoto lens cracked you know but then
3:26
the other two lenses are perfectly fine. Really? If they're all under the same
3:30
piece of sapphire or glass or whatever it's made out of then you know you crack
3:34
it once your entire rear camera system is broken. But so I know if there's like
3:39
a hidden benefit to putting it all under one one piece of glass or not but that's
3:44
allegedly what's coming. Maybe just like the visual change you know just just to
3:48
mix it up and and keep things looking fresh. Sorry Louis what were you gonna say? No I just say I like the videos people you know the GIFs people were posing in
3:56
line. I mean it does look exactly like a fidget spinner that is truly the only
4:02
thing that's missing is that little metal thing in the middle so you can like you know like set it spinning around. But other than that it looks
4:08
exactly like it. It's a little bit like the belts on a car too you know and in
4:12
the car engine. Yeah I mean anything they could do to shrink or modify the camera
4:17
hump so it isn't so prevalent I mean honestly might be okay with. It is huge
4:22
and unruly and I don't know I mean even though this is just a small aesthetic
4:27
change I actually kind of I actually kind of like it like this white one that I'm showing on screen too. I'm sorry we should move on because most of our
4:33
listeners or most of our audience are listeners and you guys can't see this. We'll post the links in the show notes. I'll make it the I'll make it the
4:39
chapter artwork. Oh perfect. If your podcast player supports chapter artwork. Yeah there you go. Yeah that white one looks good. I think that white one looks
4:45
great. Yeah maybe use that white one Louis because that this Louis Griffin
4:50
because that that that purple one that looks like that looks like doo-doo. I
4:54
mean look at that thing. I mean clearly the guy used like MS paint to make that mock-up. The white one actually looks professional. We'll see which one I use
5:02
Or maybe make your own. That's more your style. Make something in MS paint
