The iPhone 16 (Plus) photo module has been leaked. It would be placed vertically to support immersive 3D or spatial video recordings. The function is currently reserved for the Pro models of iPhone 15. This leak therefore gives weight to previous speculations.
Leaker Majin Bu shared an alleged image of the iPhone 16 (Plus) photo module on the social network X. The two sensors are arranged vertically, unlike the diagonal alignment of the iPhone 15.
We also noticed that the space between the two photo lenses is narrower than that of the iPhone 15 Pro lenses (test). However, there could still be changes on this point before launch. For example, this space could become wider if we include the rings and lenses, as shown in the diagrams.

Furthermore, we think that the photo lens block would also be redesigned and would have an oval shape. The microphone would be placed on this block, while the Led flash would be just to the right of the block.

The new photo module layout should enable immersive 3D video recording on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. This feature is currently reserved for the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max (test).
The entire iPhone 16 range is also expected to receive a dedicated “Capture” button, in addition to the action button. This new key should allow you to add flexible controls for the camera, such as the integrated zoom.
What do you think of the iPhone 16 design? Do you think it’s time for Apple to completely change the design of its smartphones?
