Is the reason for taking pictures of that?
The camera of non-Pro iPhones is from iPhone 13 series onwards.diagonalIt was placed in The main reason for this is that it takes up less space than arranging it vertically.
However,iPhone 16 camera may return to vertical orientationIt is rumored that there is. The reason and basis for this areShooting spatial videoTo do.
For the same features as Pro
Recently, the iPhone 15 Pro series implemented a spatial video shooting function for Vision Pro. It’s a clever strategy that allows you to prepare the data before the Vision Pro is released, and then use the Vision Pro to experience it as if you were actually there.

This arrangement doesn’t allow for twin-lens shooting, which is why the iPhone 16’s cameras may be lined up vertically. The camera arrangement of the iPhone 12, the last model with a vertical camera arrangement, is as shown below.

Vertical arrangement andA pattern that also combines camera bumpsis not it. However, there are now more and more sensors placed around the camera, so this pattern may not be as promising. I like this too though.
In order to enable spatial video shooting with iPhones other than the Pro, the camera will be arranged to allow twin-lens shooting. That’s what it sounds like, and I feel like the vertical arrangement is a good idea as it can differentiate it from the Pro with its rear design.
