The Apple iPhone 6s family will feature 12MP main cameras according to leaked images on Weibo by alleged Foxconn employee. The photos have subsequently been removed from the account.

The camera unit has reportedly been optimized to shoot 4K video and slow-motion footage at 240 frames per second. Previous rumors suggested that Apple might opt for a 16MP unit in the iPhone 6 successor.

The successors of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have reportedly entered early production. Apple is expected to launch the duo in September.
