Artificial intelligence might be the main selling point of smartphones this year, including the iPhone 16 series, but the camera experience will continue to be a big factor in choosing one model over the other. Apple has continuously improved the hardware and software of its iPhone cameras, but it did it at its own pace.
Apple never bumped camera resolution to keep up with rivals, nor did it add a periscope camera to the iPhone before it had the right tech in place for the technology. That’s probably why we’ve never had iPhone cameras with variable apertures, but that’s about to change in the coming years.
According to Ming-Chi Kup, the “2026 high-end iPhone 18” will get a wide camera lens with a variable aperture camera, “significantly enhancing the user photography experience.”
