As per a report by 9to5Mac, we will have to wait a lot longer for the iPhone 15 Pro Max variant. And the reason behind it ? Rumours are that the image sensor might not be ready yet. Sony, Apple’s main camera part supplier, could be struggling to deliver the main sensor for iPhone 15 Pro Max.
So, earlier reports suggested that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will see a camera upgrade, and will come with a periscope lens for greater optical zoom. However, this might be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max variant. And since there could be a possible delay in the delivery of sensors, the iPhone 15 Pro Max will have a later sale date.
This is not a first. Earlier also certain iPhones went on sale later because of manufacturing issues. Speaking of the iPhone 14 series, the iPhone 14 Plus phones went on sale later than the other phones in this series.
