The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are rumored to offer three 48-megapixel cameras for the very first time. The telephoto camera will supposedly receive a new sensor and a portrait lens, which could result in three major advantages over the telephoto camera found inside the current iPhone 16 Pro.
Recent rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will be equipped with three 48-megapixel cameras, instead of combining a 48MP main camera and a 48MP ultra-wide-angle camera with a 12MP telephoto camera, which is the setup found on the iPhone 16 Pro. However, according to latest information from leaker Majin Bu Official, the iPhone 17 Pro's telephoto camera is receiving far more upgrades than just a higher resolution.
Apple could opt for a new lens with a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 85mm, instead of the 120mm of the iPhone 16 Pro, meaning the lens will only offer 3.5x instead of 5x optical zoom. This focal length is said to be perfect for portraits. In fact, 85mm lenses are among the most popular portrait lenses in small-format cameras. This new telephoto camera could offer three major advantages compared to the iPhone 16 Pro. First of all, the camera is said to be significantly brighter, which should result in less noisy low-light photos. In practice, this should also mean that the lens' aperture will be wider than f/2.8.
Second, the new iPhone camera could be more flexible, as Apple is expected to enable "lossless" digital zoom up to a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 160mm, which is similar to how the iPhone 16 Pro main camera takes photos with 2x zoom. Last but not least, the higher resolution 48MP photos are said to give photographers more freedom when cropping images afterwards. Whether or not these leaked details are accurate will be revealed with the iPhone 17 launch, which is expected to be scheduled for September 2025.
