All new Apple smartphones will receive the camera function, which is found only in premium phones. It is reported by the issue of DigiMes.
Media sources said that manufacturers of components for iPhone planned an increase in supply, starting from the end of July. In particular, Apple partners will increase the production of motor coil motors (VOICE COIL MOTORS, VCM), which is used in the chambers of the most expensive smartphones of the American company. VCM consists of a magnet and coils that provide an optical image stabilization system by means of a matrix shift.
The named feature appeared in the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max, the basic flagships – iPhone 12 and 12 mini – do not have such a function. According to Apple, thanks to the matrix shift, the optical stabilization of the camera and the quality of the photo and video taken on the move is improved.
VCM manufacturers planned an increase in production by 30-40 percent. This may indicate both the beginning of the assembly of new Apple smartphones and that all iPhone 13 models will receive the matrix shift function.
The basic suppliers of the VCM component for Apple are Japanese companies Mitsumi and Alps. Deliveries of motors with a sound coil will grow at least until November.
It is expected that the fall of Apple will present four smartphones – iPhone 13, 13 mini, 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max. According to the sources of the Agency Wedbush, in 2021, the flagships of the American IT giant will come out exactly on time – the presentation will take place in September.
