iPhone 15 Pro Max Periscope Camera Specifications Show Up In Sketchy Image Leak; Reveals 1/1.9-Inch Sensor Size & More
Apple is scheduled to unveil its iPhone 15 series at a dedicated event in less than a week, so it should be no surprise that a barrage of leaks will come forth, and while some of them are expected to be authentic, others will not be.

However, using Google Lens, the machine translation reads that the aperture has been ‘reduced to 6mm to make characters appear delicately.’ A narrow aperture would capture less light, resulting in a more ‘grainy’ image, so we can assume that the translation was not accurate.
