Apple rumored to give new iPhone XR a square camera bump similar to iPhone XI

Apple will supposedly give its next-generation iPhone XR a square camera bump, similar to that rumored to debut with the iPhone XI, according to a new report accompanied with renders from Pricebaba.com in collaboration with OnLeaks.

The new iPhone XR, expected to arrive with both a wide-angle lens and a telephoto lens, much like that found on the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, will apparently carry-over the iPhone XI’s rumored glass-integrated square camera bump, something criticised as looking “ugly” and “obtrusive” in a resent flurry of early-stage concepts and visualizations.

At this stage we’d take Pricebaba’s report and renders with a heavy pinch of salt. If Apple were to add a second camera to the iPhone XI, the company would most likely copy the design of the dual-camera system on the iPhone XS, with both cameras neatly stored within a vertical rectangle camera housing rather than using far more space than required by adopting a square design, but that’s just our guess.

In addition to the alleged square camera bump, the 2019 iPhone XR is said to continue to use a 6.1-inch LCD display, with no cosmetic changes planned asides from the supposed new camera system. The display of the handset will had resolution of 1,792 x 828 pixels, and the report claims the device will measure 150.9 x 76.1 x 7.8mm.

OnLeaks suggest the new iPhone XR will feature an Apple A13 Bionic chip, and will come packaged with an 18W charger, as noted previously by Japanese blog Mac Otakara.
