Front camera in iPhone 17 shaping up for 24MP upgrade

The front-facing camera is hidden in the Dynamic Island

The iPhone 17 family of smartphones could gain a 24-megapixel front-facing camera, giving it twice the resolution of the current sensor.

Many of Apple’s upgrades and rumors revolve around the rear cameras, such as the alleged variable aperture system. However, in one analyst’s forecast, a change could be made to the one at the front.

According to an investor note from Haitong Securities analyst Jeff Pu seen by BGR, the iPhone 17 models will all use a 24-megapixel camera with a six-element plastic lens. For reference, the TrueDepth camera array in the iPhone 15 use a 12-megapixel camera, with five lens elements made of plastic.
