It is unlikely that the iPhone 18 pro will be equipped
Apple was apparently been so impressed by the presentation of the new sensor technology by Samsung in February that it apparently put an end to its long -standing exclusive partnership with Sony, or at least weakened it. Although Apple has officially confirmed the planned use of “new innovative technology” for its camera sensors, it remains to be seen whether it really is hybrid shutter technology shown during the presentation of Samsung.
It is also not known when the new Samsung sensors will be installed in Apple iPhones. According to the report, it is unlikely that this will happen before 2027 at the earliest, so that they will not be available on the iPhone 18 Pro, which is expected in 2026. Since 2027 will also mark the 20th anniversary of the very first iPhones, the rumor of an anniversary iPhone, which could be called iPhone 20 Pro or iPhone XX and which, according to rumors, would be entirely in glass, could be the first to benefit from this camera technology.
