IPHONE 6S AND IPHONE 6C NEWS: 12-MEGAPIXEL CAMERA, FORCE TOUCH, AND IOS 9 — OH MY!
It seems like just yesterday Apple unveiled the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. Now, the industry has shifted focus from the iPhone 6 models to the inevitable sequels. If history is any indication, the following news post will grow exponentially over the next few months, as more news streams in about Apple’s next iPhone.
Force Touch may work on the iPhone 6S and the Plus
An earlier report from G4Games hinted that the iPhone 6S will have a 3D pressure sensor built in to enable a new Force Touch action. Now, sources have told 9to5Macthat the iPhone 6S will add the new feature and optimize it for the iPhone. ForceTouch is said to come along with iOS 9 on the iPhone 6S, and it will be open to developers for use in their apps. Force Touch will reportedly offer more functions for power users, including a new way to “control space across the system,” and eliminate the need for long press interactions like rearranging app icons across home screens.
Analyst Kuo also believes that both the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus will have the Force Touch feature. However, another report from the G4Games indicates that Apple may only add Force Touch to the larger iPhone 6S Plus, and the standard, 4.7-inch model won’t have the new tech.
For those of you who didn’t analyze every word of the Apple Watch presentation, Force Touch is the new Apple Watch feature that distinguishes between short taps and long, harder touches. It’s possible that Apple has come up with a few new ways to interact with the iPhone, using Force Touch. If that’s the case, it would be strange to exclude the very popular 4.7-inch iPhone from the experiment. The most recent reports seem to hint that the feature will work on both models.
iOS 9 will spruce up the iPhone 6S
In late may, sources told 9to5Mac that iOS 9 will bring a slew of cool new features to iPhones and iPads, including the upcoming iPhone 6S. Among the new features are Force Touch, a revamped keyboard, iMessage improvements, and Apple Pay for Canadian users. We have a rumor roundup on iOS 9, and we’ll bring you all the news from Apple’s developer conference, which is to occur in June 8-12.
A 12-megapixel camera with a RGBW sensor and a two-lens system
It seems that Apple may finally bump up the resolution of its main camera. A report from Japanese site Feng agrees with early reports that the iPhone 6S will have a sharper, 12-megapixel camera sensor, which could possibly come from Sony. The camera may also feature a RGBW color sensor for improved photos in low light conditions. The report hints that Apple has been testing the sensor for some time, and originally intended to add it to the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus last year.
Earlier on, the IHS Technology Research Director in China, Kevin Wang, stated in aWeibo post that the iPhone 6S will have a 12-megapixel camera, but that the pixels will be smaller in size. His report is in agreement with other sources who say the iPhone’s camera will get more pixels.
Additionally, in a note to investors obtained by AppleInsider, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo hinted that the iPhone 6S will sport a 12-megapixel camera sensor. Apple has stuck with an 8-megapixel sensor for years, preferring to enhance its camera instead of jack up the pixel count. The note did not say whether the front-facing camera would also get a boost.
Early on, Apple commentator John Gruber said the next iPhone will feature a special “two-lens system where the back camera uses two lenses and somehow takes it up into DSLR quality imagery.” Since then, G4Games published a similar report, claiming the iPhone 6S will sport a dual lens camera and optical zoom. The aperture may also be altered to let in even more light.
HTC already experimented with a similar camera setup on the One M8. The Ultrapixel camera lens lets in more light than your average lens to improve the image quality, and a second sensor is present for additional information like depth of field. The two images are then sewn together and edited to accentuate specific elements.
It’s unclear if Apple’s new technology would work in the same way or employ different techniques to increase the quality of images taken with the iPhone 6S. So far, no smartphone camera has been able to replace the DSLR, but Apple’s iPhone 6 Plus is generally regarded as one of the best smartphone cameras out there. The company also has several patents for camera-related technology.
