iPhone 6s camera rumored to use a 12MP RGBW sensor from Sony

25 May, 2015
The addition of the white pixel is to improve low-light performance. The rumor denies a dual-camera setup.

AnonD-52529, 25 May 2015hah what a fail, had 12mp sony satio like 5 years ago with ... moreSo far i haven't had any problem with 8mp camera. There's much important things which make a good photo. When i show someone a photo, im sure they don't think, oh this is only 8mp photo :D

And by the way iPhone 6 camera easily beats HTC M9 20mp camera, oh how that's possible...?

One word SONY

    That's the benefit, but what is the drawback, if any??

                        Apple is out of idea already. 8MP stay iphone 4s back 2011 til now 2015 iphone 6 still 8MP. take too much advantage on consumers. The new generation will pick the best for money but they don't care brand name so yeah Apple, get moving before its too late. Chinese manufactories are right behind you now Apple.

                              mir, 25 May 2015Would be interesting if they manage to keep the pixel size ... moreIn that case apple has to enlarge sensor size to compensate the increase of pixel count. Lets see this september..
