Reply to comment by newecreator in realistic iPhone 15 Pro wishlist by Upbeat-Equal-8350

This won't happen: it would be neat if Apple had BIG camera packs you could swap in & out onto the magsafe portion. It would use wireless pairing for data transfer & power so the performance wouldn't be the best. Just imagining an ecosystem of large, swappable camera units (that go on the back of the iPhone) is fun.

The closest we can have from that are external lenses from lens makers like Moment.

I’m just imagining an alternate universe where Apple releases Lens Faces (big camera backs that attach with MagSafe).

While 3rd parties could do it today with MagSafe and Bluetooth, nobody would be able to compete with Apple’s OS level software integration. Attaching a camera back to your iPhone would be as seamless as when you put AirPods in your ears. Then it could automatically open the Camera app.
