Kuo: only the iPhone 15 Pro Max is getting a periscope lens

14 July 2022
Previously, it was assumed that both Pro phones will get the longer lens. However, that may not happen until 2024.

They would rather take more resources out of your device to perform the same task hence making their apps/games slower on older devices and creating more e-waste.

        Apple could give 3rd camera to 13 if they wanted because 13 pro has it. But would never be able to fit inside 13 mini.

                          Prime lens I suppose. 🤣, what a failure.
                          Even Asus knows how to make zoom lens.

                              DaFink, 14 Jul 2022So what I got from your salty little tirades on this thread... moreHe has to tell everyone that he has the longest zoom. You know I‘m not the kind of person to make fun of unalterable genetic parameters, but if I were like that, then I may joke about how maybe he has to talk about his long zoom to compensate for some body part that is not so long.

                                Point 2 is true, but you read it wrong and your reaction shows that.

                                Just saying

                                Point 3, that is Switftkey issue, I use Google Keyboard on both iOS and Android without any issues or lag.

                                Also what with your point 4, I had none and yours doesn't make much sense so just wondering why.

                                As to point one, don't hide behind a youtuber please, many people do no matter if it is right or wrong.

                                Also you don't get the point of what I said which is even worse.


                                Anyhow there are plenty of reasons to bash and complain about iOS, honestly the list is long.

                                But nobody complains about the real issues, they rather copy paste what others say like a sheep (not saying you are one, but a lot of people are)

                                And it is getting tiresome, it reminds me of same people that complain about the wrong issues in Android and Windows, they never complain about true problems, only about "what others said".

                                Simple fact, said enough about the matter as I already see you read my first comment wrong, and thus discussing about it any further would waste us both the time.

                                      Huawei is just client, never made the periscope module.

My response was to the statement that IOS works properly and that Android does things half-baked. The point I was trying to make is that no OS works properly out of the gate, not even (especially) iOS. Read before responding. Look up Golden Reviewer and his video: "iPhone 13 Pro Motion fake 120Hz ? Is Apple lying to us about high refresh rate?"

                                        2. That's simply not true. My Galaxy flagships always felt smooth to me too. I can literally go into settings right now on my S22 Ultra and set it to 60 Hz and I'll immediately see the difference. I saw no such difference on my iPhone 13 Pro whenever I turned of "promotion".

                                        3. You mean you can download SwiftKey with 10% of the features and with significant noticeable lag? Yea, literally no one in their right mind uses anything other than the standard keyboard on iPhones.

                                        4. Got any other such brilliant insights into having to use 3uTools just to be able to change ringtone and wallpaper? Or perhaps the fact that the music player makes albums based on album artist, rather than you being able to make albums yourself? Or perhaps the fact that it's an excruciating process just to make different albums in the gallery, so that memes and porn pictures don't end up in the family album? Yea, have fun with your dumb phone.
