Reportedly, the company is planning to use a “quadruple-reflection prism” design for the iPhone 16 Pro to boost the telephoto camera experience and to bring 5x optical zoom capabilities. The lens is also speculated to reduce the camera bump, however, it included some drawbacks as well in terms of attracting more light to the sensor. Therefore, we expect that Apple may include an improved version of the periscope lens in the iPhone 16 Pro. 

While the iPhone 16 Pro is getting a new periscope lens, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is also expected to get an upgrade with “super telephoto” which will only be available to the “Pro Max” version. Therefore, these are some of the major upgrades expected with the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro models.
