• Apple is reportedly increasing the order size for periscope lenses to be used in its upcoming iPhone 16 series.
• This expansion suggests that both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max may feature a tetraprism 5x zoom lens.
• Previously, only the iPhone 15 Pro Max featured a 5x zoom lens.

Recent rumors surrounding the iPhone 16 lineup have indicated that the iPhone 16 Pro could be getting a new zoom camera. And now, a new report from Digitimes gives us even more reasons to believe that Apple is stepping up its zoom game in the next iPhone series.

According to the report, Apple has placed large orders with lens manufacturers Largan Precision and Genius Electronic Optical (GSEO), aiming to expand the use of periscope lenses in its upcoming iPhone lineup.
