The iPhone 14 uses a “High End” front-facing camera part.
The report reveals that Apple has chosen LG Innotek to be the manufacturer of the front-facing camera parts for the iPhone 14, shifting its plans from the original iPhone 15 to the iPhone 14 this year instead.
The move comes in part because Apple wants “high-end” front-facing camera parts and concerns about quality from a Chinese component maker. Of course, with the new “High End” front-facing camera parts, Apple will cost Apple three times the cost of front-facing camera parts compared to its predecessor.
Ming-Chi Kuo revealed that Apple will improve the front-facing camera on all four new iPhone 14 models (iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max) will come with autofocus and f/1.9.
f/1.9 allows the iPhone’s front-facing camera to collect more light, clearer images, and adding Autofocus to the front-facing camera helps to capture better photos and videos of blurred backgrounds. It allows for better focus on people during FaceTime compared to the iPhone 13 with Fixedfocus and f/2.2.
LG Innotek is reportedly preparing to mass-produce the front-facing camera parts for the iPhone 14, with the iPhone 14 slated to launch in September 2022, according to Apple’s new iPhone launch schedule.
