The iPhone 16 hasn't even been released to the world yet, but rumors around the 17 have already started swirling.
The latest prediction? It's all about the future iPhone's camera - and Apple fans will no doubt be thrilled by the rumors.
Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at Hong Kong-owned investment management services company TF International Securities, is known for his tech-related observations - particularly his insightful predictions of what we might see coming up in our favorite gadgets.

He's turned his attention to the future iPhone in a new blog published on Medium, predicting that it will "include a significant upgrade to the iPhone 17’s front camera lens".

Ming-Chi suggested it will be upgraded to a 24 megapixel lens - which is a big jump from the 12MP lens of the latest model, the iPhone 15.
He said Taiwan-based company Genius might be the primary lens provider for the front cameras - which could cost a lot more to buy than the lenses Apple currently use.
Before we even get to the iPhone 17 - slated to drop in 2025 - we've got the 16 coming out, likely later this year.
According to Ming-Chi, the 16 Pro could have a 'periscope lens'. These give you extra zooming capabilities - meaning you can take a photo by zooming in five or even 10 times. He also suggested the 16 Pro series will have an improved ultra-wide camera.

But at the moment, this is all speculation. One thing we do know for sure?
![The Apple Vision Pro headset has finally got a release date.](https://images.ladbible.com/resize?type=webp&quality=70&width=3840&fit=contain&gravity=auto&url=https://images.ladbiblegroup.com/v3/assets/bltb5d92757ac1ee045/blt53f7701aa43ae102/659d1223172b6c040a4795af/GettyImages-1496199364.jpg)
Next month, Apple's mixed reality headset, Vision Pro, will go on sale for the first time.
First announced last summer, Vision Pro is a wearable computer headset. It mixes apps and software and the real world, and will be controlled by your eyes, hands and voice.

Apple says it will give you a more immersive gaming experience - but it won't come cheap.
The Vision Pro will start at $3,499 (£2,742) - several times the price of the Meta Quest 3, the rival VR headset from Facebook's parent company, which only costs $499 (£390).
At the moment, the Vision Pro will only be available in the US - pre-orders will go live on January 19, with the device launching on February 2.
