Apple’s new iPhone models, likely coming out this fall, will get an improved selfie camera, and two new models will get a triple camera with a super-wide lens, a new report claims. 

The news is courtesy of reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (via MacRumors), and while it mostly rehashes his report from early April, it does mention a few new details. 

Kuo claims that the 6.5-inch OLED and the 5.8-inch OLED iPhones — corresponding to the iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XS — will get the triple camera, while the 6.1-inch LCD model (corresponding to the iPhone XR) will be upgraded to a dual camera. 

He also believes that all three new iPhones will get the exact same, 12-megapixel selfie camera. 

Finally, Kuo says the super-wide lens, as well as the front lens, will have a special black coating to make them “inconspicuous.” 9to5Mac points out that this near-invisible look might make the new iPhones more aesthetically pleasing. This is good news; the renders we’ve seen (check out the video below) don’t look very beautiful, and it’s unlikely that they represent the look of the final product. 

There’s no mention of a possible fourth and fifth iPhone, which were recently rumored by Japanese blog Macotakara.
