News Summary

• In a story published directly to X, Kuo claims that Samsung is getting in on the iPhone camera business in two years, for the iPhone 18 Pro line.
• The telephoto camera would therefore become the last remaining camera using a 12-megapixel sensor.
• It's been said before, and it's been repeated by others — 48 megapixel sensors are coming to the ultra-wide camera in the iPhone 16 Pro line.
• Separately, Sony also reportedly lost its exclusive status as provider of screens for the Apple Vision Pro, because it reportedly refused to increase production capacity.
• A previous rumor claimed that Apple was looking at Samsung as a potential supplier for this camera.
• Assuming Samsung's CIS is approved, it will mean Sony losing its status as exclusive supplier for image sensors on the iPhone.
