Apple cameras have been exclusively powered by Sony sensors for over a decade, but that might be about to change. According to leaker Jukanlosreve, iPhone 18 might ditch Sony in favor of a new “3-layer stacked” camera sensor from Samsung. That backs up some older claims made by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Jukanlosreve claims that this “3-layer stacked” image sensor is more advanced than Sony’s Exmor RS, and he believes that “it cannot be ruled out as a potential candidate for the main sensor.” Crucially, though, they claim that this sensor is in addition to the rumored 500MP camera sensor supposedly coming to Galaxy phones in the future.
