While the launch of the iPhone 15 seems reasonably novel to many, the iPhone 16 case design is solidifying at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, meaning it's time to take the rumors seriously. Masu.
We've already discussed the possibility of significant changes to the case and looked at the possibility of a new shutter button for the entire iPhone 16 generation, and now Majin Bu, a leaker with a mixed record, seems to have confirmed it. . At least the components.

By sharing an image of an iPhone 16 case with dual cameras stacked on top of each other, similar to the classic iPhone X pill-shaped camera module design. The iPhone X was released in 2017, bringing both dual cameras and a notch to the iPhone, and more than anything else, it got a lot of people talking about its design.
Anyway, Back to the Future (iPhone 16 expected at this year's fall event as usual). While we're not entirely convinced that Majin Bu's Photoshop work is indicative of Apple's final design, the ever-present analytical voice at MacRumors suggests it could be a real part, even if the image isn't. It is pointed out in the evaluation that there is enough. Please tell me a lot. Note that Bu rumors and some renderings say the flash is on the body, not between the lenses. We're also inclined to assume that the action button already seen on the iPhone 15 Pro will replace the mute switch.
Other rumors suggest that Apple is considering switching the iPhone lens to a vertical orientation in the next iPhone. There's not just a continued thirst for reinvention, but also new reasons why it might make sense. Currently, only iPhone Pro can record spatial video. This is because when you hold your phone horizontally, the wide camera and main camera are placed parallel to each other. On the iPhone, you can accommodate this by changing the camera position.
If this is true, it could be interpreted as Apple abandoning the aesthetic decisions that many people seem to like and making their phones stand out in favor of more functional ones. not. What's more, it supports very niche features in what is currently a niche product, but could this be the beginning of a clue as to how far Apple is betting on spatial computing?
