Also, their reputation, their privilege, their profit. Imagine a Xiaomi or Realme phone with IOS (200-300eur) that works and performs the same as a 800-1000eur iphone. Lol. End of the world.

unless apple has serious competitors, why bother with major upgrades? huawei has no change to compete due to bans. xiaomi flagships have no global footprint. oppo either. sony, lg and htc are almost gone. there is only samsung.

Maria, 09 Mar 2021Everytime there is a news about Apple, everytime the people... moreYeah, but it brings people to the posts. Just show me one Apple post with less than 50 comments. Go on, I'll wait. Lol.
70% of them are iphone haters to some degree. 25% are neutral. And 5% are actually iphone users who care about this comments. Lol.
I don't understand some haters though. I think they are tiny people (not talking about height) with p*thetic lives. They are probably the same in real life too.
I had multiple iphones and Android phones. And I am now on Android phone, I will probably won't buy an iphone any time soon. But I will not just start making hateful comments on internet, just because I can and it's easy.

I mean Samsung already did that with S20 line and it went really bad and they lowered the prices with S21 line.

At least a 3x regular telephoto would cut it as long as they get the image quality correct.

Article's Quote, "This could be the last year of Face ID on iPhone, however, as previous reports from Kuo indicate that Apple will switch to an in-display fingerprint reader in 2022 and replace the notch with a punch hole."
Great comedy. The notch is instrumental to the identity of the iPhone and shall never be replaced. Long may the iNotch live.

Anonymous, 09 Mar 2021periscope lens provide higher magnification zoom and optica... moreOne needs to take into account that "5x optical zoom" is a marketing term. Optical zoom doesn't reduce the megapixel count, but there are several "5x" cameras that only have 8 megapixels, so they don't have a true "5x optical zoom" setting. Furthermore, the focal length isn't 5x as large as the focal length of the 1x camera.
A 125mm field of view with 9 megapixels is possible without periscope technique. One simply needs to combine the 8.74mm f/2 OIS lens of the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 with a 0.7 micrometer sensor.
The disadvantage is that the camera would capture less light in perfect light conditions because the sensor area is smaller due to the smaller focal length. Though in bad light conditions there wouldn't be a disadvantage, in bad light conditions it would capture about the same amount of light per time from an object as Huawei's "5x" camera.

Why have a periscope when the notch dictates the identity of iPhones.

For example, a 104mm 1/2" like s20 ultra without periscope would be huge. More than 1cm easily.
The bump would be bizarre.

5x optical zoom cannot be achieved by a traditional telephoto lens (only applies to smartphones, not to real cameras) unless the company does some trick to make it "5x" optical zoom.
