Next-Generation iPhone May Have 5MP Camera, Sources Claim

Digitimes’ patchy sources are claiming that OmniVision Technologies – the current manufacturers of the iPhone 3GS’ 3.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor – has won a new contract with Apple to provide the Cupertino company with new sensors for the next-generation 2010 iPhone.

They claim that the new CMOS image sensors are five megapixels. OmniVision Technologies say the orders will increase too, from 20-21 million estimated this year, to 40 to 45 million CMOS for the 2010. [Digitimes]

    If it doesn’t have an OLED screen and 5MP camera I’ll have to wait another year to get one!

    Looks like it will be thicker than before, and surely heavier than before too.

      That’s not it, but yes, it will probably be thicker.
