    If they’re truly withholding the 6x optical zoom periscope lens for only the Pro Max, this is def a generation I’ll be skipping. Those phones are unfortunately just too big.

    Hopefully it’ll hit the regular Pro next time or something. If so I feel like the 16 Pro will be the phone to buy with the improved camera and USB C on deck.

        I’m talking about optical zoom. I don’t care about how much they can crop in on a 48mp images. That’s not true zoom and you’re losing resolution doing it.

        All the rumors are saying only the Pro Max is getting 6x optical zoom and that’s what I’m concerned with here.

            You keep kinda repeating yourself here. I used to work doing photo and video, I understand what you’re trying to explain.

            I’d rather have 6x true optical zoom on a 48mp image, not binned 12 mp images.

            If you don’t care that’s fine, buy the phone or whatever. I’m not trying to talk you or anybody out of it. I’ll pass if they’re restricting the feature from the non max size this time. That’s all.
