More prominent camera module in iPhone 13
In addition to a thicker camera bump, Apple is changing the overall size of the camera bump, a shift that will also be more noticeable on the iPhone 13 Pro. The iPhone 12 and 12 Pro will have camera bumps that are about 28mm x 30mm thick, while the iPhone 13 will have a camera bump that's closer to the box at about 29mm x 29mm.
The iPhone 13 Pro is expected to come with a larger camera bump, measuring around 36mm x 37mm, so instead of having a camera bump size similar to the iPhone 13, it will be more similar to the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The iPhone 12 Pro camera is smaller than that of the iPhone 12 Pro Max, so the shift in 2021 indicates that the 13 Pro and Pro Max will have similar cameras, and Apple may reintroduce parity on both phones.
The rumors also suggested that the upgraded telephoto lens that was introduced exclusively on the iPhone 12 Pro Max could reach iPhone 13 Pro, another sign that both iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max cameras can share the same set of features. We haven't heard of any new camera features limited to the 13 Pro Max, which is good news for those who want a smaller phone with all the features of the Pro Max edition.
Since the size of the rear camera module will change in the iPhone 13 series, Apple may also plan to adjust the position of the side button, mute button, and volume buttons. The side button can be moved down a bit on the iPhone 13 models, with the mute button and the volume buttons on the other side also toggled down accordingly.
All phones of the iPhone 13 series are also expected to feature upgraded A15 processors, faster 5G support, and more, and you can read all the news and exclusive details about the iPhone 13 here.
