The highly anticipated foldable iPhone from Apple is once again a topic of conversation following a new leak about its cameras. Although the device hasn't been officially unveiled yet, a lot of information is already circulating about its design, components, and functionality.
This time, the information comes from the Chinese social network Weibo and provides key details about the camera system that the brand's first foldable from Cupertino would feature.

A dual 48 MP camera like the iPhone 16 Pro's
According to a leak from Digital Chat Station, the foldable will come with two 48-megapixel sensors. These would be similar to those in the iPhone 16 Pro, meaning a main lens and an ultra-wide-angle lens.
This would allow for high-quality photos, maintaining the standard of high-end models. In addition, it would help justify the price, which, according to rumors, would exceed $2,000.
What features would the main camera have?
The main lens would be 24 mm, with an aperture of ƒ/1.78 and optical stabilization with sensor-shift. It would also include smart cropping to simulate focal lengths of 28 mm and 35 mm.
¿Qué funciones tendría la cámara principal?
For now, the inclusion of a telephoto lens is ruled out, mainly due to the space limitations imposed by the foldable design.
Dual front camera and screens with changes
Other leaks suggest that there would be an internal and an external front camera. The front one could be punch-holed, as rumored for the iPhone 18 Pro, while the internal one remains a mystery.

Internal screen of 7.6 inches and external of 5.5 inches.

Production in an advanced stage at Foxconn since March.
When will the foldable iPhone be released?
