According to the latest reports from well-known insider and TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple has found a new compact camera module (CCM) supplier for the MacBook: Sunny Optical. The same company could be the CCM supplier for future iPhones and iPads. reports MacRumor’s post.
Apple plans to reduce the thickness of its future devices, and the iPad Pro 2024 is the first step in this direction. It is likely that reduced CCMs will be required to implement this plan. But miniaturization is not the only benefit of the new camera modules. Apple technology users have long been waiting for Face ID (recognized as a foreign agent in the Russian Federation) to appear on the MacBook.
Before Kuo’s statement, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman wrote that Apple was already working on introducing this technology to computers. According to him, Face ID will also appear on Apple laptops in the next few years. It is possible that the new compact camera modules will accelerate the integration of Face ID into the MacBook.
According to Kuo, new CCMs will not appear in Apple laptops before 2025. Most likely, this will happen in the second half of the year, when the company will release a MacBook based on M5 processors.
