Apple might be preparing for a big selfie camera upgrade on the iPhone.
According to analyst Jeff Pu (via MacRumors), all the devices in the iPhone 17 lineup (that includes the iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Pro, the iPhone 17 Pro Max, and the rumored iPhone 17 Air) will have a 24-megapixel front camera.
That’s a pretty big upgrade given that the currently available iPhones all come with a 12-megapixel camera. Other details are absent, though Apple sleuth Ming-Chi Kuo previously said that the camera will “significantly improve the image quality”.
For the end users, this should mean more detailed, sharper selfies, but Apple could also use pixel binning tech to produce brighter selfies.

The upgrade makes sense given that numerous Android phones come with a selfie camera with a higher resolution. For example, the recent Xiaomi 15 Ultra has a 32-megapixel selfie camera.
Pu also shared some other details about the upcoming iPhones. He says that the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will have 12GB of RAM and a 48-megapixel telephoto camera.
Apple doesn’t share details about upcoming products, so all this will be in the realm of speculation until the phones officially launch, likely in September.
