Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max to feature an advanced customised main camera sensor from Sony, claims reliable tipster

According to reliable source Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro Max is poised to deliver substantial advancements in its camera capabilities, thanks to a larger, cutting-edge main camera sensor.

According to Digital Chat Station, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is anticipated to redefine itself as an "image flagship", placing a strong emphasis on elevating its photography and videography prowess. The main highlight is the addition of a customized 48 MP Sony IMX903 sensor, equipped with advanced features such as a 14-bit ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) for enhanced data conversion and DCG (Digital Control Gain).

The use of a 14-bit ADC allows a higher bit depth for data conversion. This increased bit depth allows for more precise and detailed representation of the analog signal in its digital form. When it comes to imaging, a higher bit depth helps capture a broader range of color tones and nuances, contributing to improved image quality, especially in challenging lighting conditions. DCG, on the other hand, facilitates the adjustment of the signal strength in the digital domain, effectively suppressing unwanted noise in the image.

The impressive 1/1.14 inch IMX903 sensor, which is approximately 11% larger than the  1/1.28 inch sensor in the iPhone 15 Pro Max, promises significantly improved low-light performance. This is attributed to its larger surface area, facilitating enhanced light capture and contributing to an expanded dynamic range. 

Additionally, Digital Chat Station also revealed that the iPhone 16 Pro Max will sport a sleek curved screen design, all while maintaining the same thickness as its predecessor, the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
