Apple's supplier LG Innotek is set to begin mass production of camera modules for the iPhone SE 4 in December, aligning with a potential launch in March or April 2025. The budget-friendly device is expected to feature a design similar to the iPhone 14, with a 6.1-inch OLED display, Face ID, a 48-megapixel rear camera, and Apple's first in-house 5G modem.

Apple is reportedly developing under-display camera technology for future iPhones, with the iPhone 19 expected to be the first to feature this new feature. The company's Korean suppliers, including LG Innotek, are said to be working on a special lens called 'Preform Optics' to overcome the limitations of under-display cameras, such as reduced light intake. While phones with under-display cameras are already available from brands like ZTE and Samsung, Apple's implementation is not expected until 2027.

A supply-chain report suggests that Apple may introduce an under-screen Face ID camera in the iPhone "after 2026," using technology developed by LG Innotek. This technology would be a stepping stone towards achieving Apple's vision of a true all-screen design. While the under-screen Face ID camera is expected to be implemented before the front-facing camera, the report indicates that the latter may not be embedded beneath the display until the technology is more advanced. The report also suggests that Apple has evaluated competing technologies and found LG Innotek's offering to be more satisfactory.

Apple's Korean suppliers, LG Innotek and LG Display, have begun developing under-display cameras (UDC) for future iPhones, aiming to achieve a true "all-screen" appearance. The UDC technology sits beneath the display and does not result in a visible hole when the camera is not in use. LG Innotek is developing a special multiple lens system to improve image quality and brightness, while LG Display aims to increase the UDC's light transmittance. Apple is expected to adopt under-panel Face ID technology in 2025 and incorporate the UDC in 2027.

Apple is expected to introduce tetraprism camera technology to both iPhone 16 Pro models, allowing for at least 5x optical zoom and 25x digital zoom on the Telephoto lens. The company will add LG Innotek as a supplier of the folded zoom module to meet the increased production demands. The iPhone 16 Pro is rumored to have a larger display, providing more space for the tetraprism lens.
