If Apple ditches Sony for Samsung, iPhone photography may never be the same.
Apple recently announced a massive $100 billion investment into US-based manufacturing, and it may have a hidden upside for photography fans. According to a new report from DealSite Korea, Apple is partnering with Samsung to produce CMOS image sensors (CIS) for upcoming iPhones — and the iPhone 18 may be the first to benefit.
While Apple didn’t specify which components would be involved in its latest investment, the company did confirm it’s working with Samsung to develop “innovative new technology for making chips” at a US facility — likely the Austin, Texas plant where Samsung already has a major presence.
