Phone 15 Pro Max Main Camera Module To Be An Inch Larger Than iPhone 14 Pro Max’s, New Case Images Leak Show Massive Rear Cutout

People get work up about this but we’ve already crossed the rubicon once the bump was large enough that it couldn’t sit “flat”, even with a case. At this point I don’t care, take up the whole back of the phone if you want.
The bump annoyed me when it was first announced but I’ll choose better pictures over caring about the bump.
No. I don’t care about it sitting flat, it’s more that these designs just assume you’ll throw a case on it. The bump hasn’t stopped being annoying at any point. Bigger is not going to be better, it’s just going to exaggerate this problem.
Yeah, what annoys me is that phones these days are designed to sit in cases that the manufacturer doesn’t even provide. Makes the device feel…incomplete, somehow.
an inch larger! lawd…
It is a camera that has a phone attached to it
For me, the phone experience will always come first before camera quality since even mid-range phones produce respectable pictures these days.
I will not purchase a 6.7"+ phone with huge camera bump that can't sit flat on table. Last week I tried my friend's Xiaomi 13 Ultra and that camera bump was eating into my hand..
Like it as not, however, camera quality is a huge selling point for a lot of people in the market for a new phone, and it's one of the few "measurable gains" that can still be shown off with each upgrade cycle now that most other smartphone features have capped out or gotten a lot more incremental.
I like Googles design language for their pixels, instead of a giant bump they made it into a visor.
Apple does this to keep the lenses equidistant and close together, I assume. It definitely looks ugly, but it’s a usability compromise that had to be made.
And yet photos will still look just as over processed, if not more.
iOS 17 supposedly fixes that.
I highly doubt it considering the whole industry is doing it (although iPhones are way worse than some others), but I'd like to be surprised
Certainly hope so. Images from my iPhone 10 were superior to my 13PM. Too much sharpening. I’m sure some people like sharp and de-noised but it looks quite artificial to me.
Just make it an option to configure. I prefer a bit of grain and softness over artificially sharp.
The pictures in the article do not reflect an inch in growth. Are we sure the title is translated correctly? I think they just mean the cutout is now an inch long, not that the lenses are now more than 1 inch sensors each.
Agree, title does not make sense. It supposedly uses a periscope lens. Is that an inch long? Is the cutout a full inch?
I wonder if they mean that it expanded by a square inch of area
