Apple rumored to launch a triple camera iPhone in 2019. And that’s good news for Sony.

Share


Mockup from Martin Hajek via iDrop News

The past years smartphones adopted the double lens/sensor tech which did help Sony to make record profits in the image sensor production segment. Lately Sony did warn that the boom might be over. But now a new trend seems to form. Apple rumored to launch a triple camera iPhone in 2019. Which means Sony could again get an unexpected boost. (via Macrumors)

Moreover CMOS image sensor sales at all-time high. IC Insights reports “The spread of digital camera applications in vehicles, machine vision, human recognition and security systems, as well as for more powerful camera phones will drive CMOS image sensor sales to an eighth straight record-high level this year with worldwide revenues growing 10% to $13.7 billion, following a 19% surge in 2017. (via Image Sensor World).

Bright future for Sony. if their imaging sensor business keeps growing they will keep pushing R&D and we will get better sensors for our cameras too :)
