Apple’s Pro iPhones may finally adopt a 200-megapixel camera system, but not until 2028, according to leaker Digital Chat Station. The analyst, known for sporadic accuracy, claims supply chain sources confirm Apple is evaluating a periscope telephoto lens for this resolution. While rivals like Samsung already use triple-digit megapixels, Apple has stuck with 48MP sensors, prioritizing computational photography over raw resolution.

This delay aligns with Apple’s history of incremental upgrades, though pressure from competitors and consumer demand for flagship specs may accelerate the shift.
