- Today, Apple's iPhone has three cameras, but it started with just one with the original iPhone 2G model in 2007. And you may’ve expected it to continue using a single lens with the iPhone 7 Plus kind’ve like digital cameras, but this hasn’t been the case. So why exactly does Apple think their iPhone needs three cameras? Well, that’s exactly what you'll find out in this video.

Do you have a burning question about an Apple product? Let me know in the comments! - Greg
Will Apple ever release a car or a smart vehicle in the future? Or even every day items like glasses, cups, and more.
Why apple moved the logo on the back of the iphone
A question about why they made the regular Macbook that got discontinued.
Why doesn't apple make refrigerator like samsung?
Why apple products have less features
Is it just me or is Greg making videos more regularly with better animation?
yeah but... do we really need a video on why iPhones have three cameras lol I think he's just creating content for the sake of it
@@agiverreviga4592 I mean, the video does what it says, and there are people out there who want to know. Not to mention some people who may watch this video aren't very tech-savy, so they may question why it has 3 cameras.
It’s not just you, and I’m here for it.
@@mxvia. imo I don't think it takes a tech savy person to know why 3 cameras, and also I don't think "people who don't know why 3 cameras" would follow this channel...
@Jaquan Kelsor You realise the title of the video is a question, so if someone just went onto Google or TH-cam and asked it this video would pop up and their question would be answered.
I really enjoy your channel! Keep it up!

The only apple TH-cam channel that is extremely interesting to watch every time thanks
True. I'm an Android guy, but I still love these videos
@@dugtrioramen Same.
@Wool Old ??? What about these videos did that? As far as I see, they're just nice little history lessons
@@dugtrioramen they show how awesome apple products are and how apple is much better than android
As an amateur DSLR/mirrorless photographer. I have laughed at “iPhone photographers” for years. But then Apple added those other built in lens… I must admit I use my iPhone more and more for photography now.
What accessories does one need to get dslr level of photos from an iPhone
@@cj7073 extra lenses and filtera like provided by moment
@@cj7073 I would argue that an iPhones sensor is still not as good as a DSLR sensor.
And when I said I use my iPhone more and more for photography, I meant day-to-day moments. But this is because it is simply convenient, and for things that don’t matter, the iPhones pictures are good enough.
But for photography that matters, I still use my Nikon Z6.
@@KevinGerhart1701 which phone has the best inbuilt camera according to you for general photos?
@@cj7073Shooting with the 13 Pro here : Some good tripod, some lenses that go on top of the normal lens to take advantage of the low f/stop and bigger sensor size.
Mostly you need to shoot RAW somehow. Apples colors are pretty shitty being too sharp and a weird oversaturation. On Lightroom you can take away the ProRaw Color Profile and replace it with Adobe Color.
Mine does well with the intelligent long exposure being really stable. Being stable and avoiding shakiness in general, especially on the zoom lens. Portraits bokeh kinda suck compared to bugger sensors. But it’s still there.
Maybe it’s best for Macro and Landscape stuff.
Very fair point about the SLRs and digital cameras. I never thought about it that way. Great content!! I’ve been around since the beginning of the channel, I am LOVING the evolution you’re going thru with this!!
I thought it’s gonna be why it only has three lol, while others have like 4 or 5, at least.
then people make fun of apple for having “too many cameras”
This is Apple Explained not Apple Compared tho.
@@aaron3951 LOL
@Ean Elijah De Guzman like the 2mp macro cameras. utterly useless

holy, your channel is growing so fast. it went from 749k to 763k in a matter of hours
With no midroll ads, beautiful and smooth animations and well researched scripts, it’s not much of a surprise.
Holy holy holy Molly
What’s next? Why iPhones have a screen?😂
Thanks for the information and nice videos! , Greg
The stuff you can learn on TH-cam. Great vid mate, you got a new subscriber here.
@@deanwoods8647 LOL Feel better about yourself mate? The video was about WHY they have three cameras, NOT about what they do. I did not know the history and reasons why they kept adding cameras nor how they could work in tandem. Did you?
I knew most of that but still learned something. Thank you for this and all your great videos.
Beautiful graphics and very informative as always.
Ty that was well done and informative
another awesome video, keep up the great work.
This channel is awesome! Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the great explanation
Great videos always!!!!!
Very good video thank you so much Greg😊😊
Why are EGPU’s longer supported with the M1 chip? Will they be supported in future versions of Apple silicon? Awesome videos, Greg :-)
Love your channel! keep it up!
Hi Greg! I admire watching your videos. I’d like to ask you if you believe that the industrial design will return to the single lens camera at the iPhone. Thank you.
Quality is this channel's strength
Keep it going Greg
Thanks for the explanations
I just subscribed, great 👍🏾video
Recently came across this channel, I am watching all the past videos as fast as I can
Finally!!!! Such a simple and straight to the point explanation.
End of line.
I love this new style!
Me too!
It's from the channel flat life
@@vikasprasad6288 I think he’s actually doing these
👍. Greg you are getting amazing video by video
Love this channel !
I already know why most latest phones have 3 or more cameras,
But i like to watch your video for more details. Nice job
Thanks for the info. Just bought this phone 2 days ago.
I’ve just found a new favourite channel!
Wow , what an explanation no one ever tbought of 😝 Answering SUCH a puzzling question
Technically the iPhone now has 5 cameras.
3 main lenses, a front camera and LiDAR. LiDAR technically is also a camera (you even can see this in Apples marketing material of the 2020 iPad Pro).
And sadly capture outside the frame is already no longer a thing... I LOVED this feature SO much but Apple decided to completely kill it with iOS14 - just about 7 months after it was introduced with the iPhone 11 series... I still don't get why Apple has done this. It was so extremely useful and saved dozens of photos I took of my dog because sometimes he is too fast and I ended up capturing only parts of him.
Liked it before watching!🙂
One of the best channel in TH-cam 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💡💡
Hi Greg. Thanks for your video. I bought an Apexel macro lens for my iPhone 11 Pro. It works fine on the wide angle lens. With the telephoto lens though, I get a clear view of the scene for a few seconds, but when I get closer to my motive, the lower half of the display turns black, as if the wide angle lens kicked in. Do the cameras interact in a weird way that I just don't get?
It probably automatically switches to an ultra-wide lens when the object is very close to the camera. Just assuming since Samsung Ultra phones do it like that
I personally like these shorter videos on slightly simpler topics. Less fluff, more efficient, and more enjoyable. Keep it up
NICE CHANNEL, LOVE IT
Really like this style
I like your recent videos where you cut to the point straight away without the intro bs you normally did
Hey Greg thanks for the explanation. I’m practicing figure photography and wants to use the Telephoto lens on the 13 pro max, can it be used at 2x or is it available only on 3x?
Thank you so much!!
In love with this content
Animations are cool but videos are a little bit too short. And I love you Tim Cook photo collection
3:23
That feature is really great and I think only Apple give that feature
But the ultra wide data is removed after 30 days if not used
That combined Camera array must be the reason why with the native camera app open and I take my finger and cover the main camera. Suddenly another camera opens. This is very difficult when setting your camera up to view through the eyepiece of a telescope, for example. But if you want to blow your mind, a little bit, open your native camera app, and put your finger run up to the lens and cover it and then see what happens.
I don't understand what's there to explain why they have 3 cameras, like seriously? It's pretty basic dude come on . Its not like they invented it first or they're the only company having 3 cameras🤣🤣 About the explanation of "why" let me cut it short : main camera for regular photos, telephoto for zoom and portrait, ultrawide for getting more view into the shot.💁♂️💁♂️ simple and easy
I wonder if they would go back to one camera. Like a fairly big camera with a LiDAR sidekick.
Great editing
Hi Greg, was this video made with Keynote?
Hi Apple explained I love your content so much you need way more subs you deliver informative information for us Apple lovers Thank you for great content also what computer 🖥 do you use to make these videos and what app or video software
He uses a computer
I like your video can this phone surport night mode?
I hope lensless cameras advance faster. It would be great to do focus and magnify entirely in post.
Short answer: normal lens, tele lens, wide lens. No need for a 4 minute video. Btw: not only the iPhone has this and the iPhone was also not the first one. A lot of phones also have a 4th Makro lens or even a 5th monochrome lens. A lot of phones even have a periscope camera with 5x or 10x optic zoom!
Next video. 13 minutes on why Apple has an apple logo
I have an iPhoneX… only has 2 lenses, but 10x digital zoom, and a gorgeous monochrome filter.awesome photos!
@@prismstudios001 wow... Digital zoom. 🤦🏻♂️😂 I'm talking about optical zoom bro
@@prismstudios001 monochrome lenses are not for taking monochrome photos, they are added because they allow 3 times more light into than a colour sensors, this light holds details about pictures, those 3 times more detailes is then merged with normal colour sensor photo to produce clearer photos. Nokia 9 pureview had 2 colour cameras and 3 monochrome cameras and it combines image from all from cameras to produce true to life and super detailed images.
“None of these features would’ve been possible with a single camera lens”
Ipad 2021: has ultra wide selfie camera
They do move around a little by magnet and coil stuff (modern phones)
I don’t know if you have done a video on this already, but I’d like to know how apple eliminated the bottom bezel of iphones like the xr and 11. I know on the 10 and all phones with an oled display they said they curved the display around the bottom of the phone to make space for the connector cable or whatever but how did they do it with an lcd panel. Are they bendable too or did they find another solution?
This would be a cool video
The galaxy fold uses an oled display though which is bendable, the iphone 11 and Xr use an lcd which theoretically isn’t.
Yea I don’t either, that’s why I think it would be a cool idea for Apple Explained to explain it.
@Anand Raj I’ve seen teardowns claiming that’s just a marketing gimmick. The flex cable bends around the bottom but it’s not like the display is wrapping
I found some info here but I’m not an expert so take it with a grain of salt:
www.quora.com/Why-is-OLED-display-in-iPhone-X-folded-at-the-bottom
@Anand Raj I like marketing and most of the time I don’t have a problem with Apple’s but I think they should’ve left the screen wrapping stuff out haha It leaves the people who believe it was an out of the world thing feeling stupid after researching the truth
I like your videos
Next video: Why the iPhone has a screen
Nice video but i think most of us know that, didn’t needed for this video, still good 👍
lol
Please do a video about "for the first time" cause I heard it too many times.
Should do a video based upon Steve Jobs existing patents and what he would have done in the future had he lived
1:46 What did Greg (from Apple Explained) meant when he said that "the iPhone's single lens can only do so much"?
It was only limited to certain features.
Honestly if they make their regular iteration with less cameras then the other then the pro that would really be a great way to push their market share in other countries by offering cheaper product but maybe the cameras are a pittance compared to the rest of the phone idk
The iPhone SE3 exists
underrated channel
It also explains another reason why the audio jack had to go. To make room for the cameras
Could you please make "why swiping through photos in files apps stutter"?
A bit odd? No way; iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro are the coolest iPhone designs yet! I've seen the distinctive look a lot recently in art; artists have been giving characters thes phones to indicate that they're wealthy or high-class, and it looks REALLY good.
Very nice
quick: telephoto, wide, and ultra wide are the 3 cameras on the phone, all three help take amazing pictures
3 cameras so you can take sharper pictures of a strangely shaped strawberry
I am wondering why I am, a pro android user watching iPhone videos regularly.
I have an iPhone 12 Pro and just purchased an external lens for macro photography. Which of the 3 lenses do I attach the external lens to for macro?
bottom
But on the SE you can use the Portrait Mode
What can you use to take a pic with all 3 lenses at once?
I wish Apple kept shipping there dual camera models with a wide angle and telephoto lens.
could you make your videos a little dark mode?
This is the first Apple Explained video ever, I have not leaned anything new 😏
My final paper for my MGT429 class was a business study on Apple's leadership and they delayed the telephoto lens while it was on the market for Android for two years simpke because they wanted emaculate portrait shots. They take implementation seriously and makes it less of a gimmick like the 100x zoom on the S21 Ultra.
@Anand Raj I mean that's the point. Average consumer doesn't care and that's why it works. They will never admit, but hence why they have the ugly new iMacs.
@Anand Raj The ironic thing is that most Androids and Windows computers to get the same performance as an Apple device cost more now. So it amazes me how Apple is still seen as rich when almost every Joe has them. When I was in University, graduated last Friday, every student (Especially female students) has a Macbook Pro and an iPhone Pro Max of some sort. How the roles have changed. I use a Macbook and use a Tab S7 and I love both. I personally prefer iPad OS over Android, but the cost value had me take a gamble and I am happy. Hopefully it will last me 5 years like an iPad with an A10 chip still does today.
Bro is back
I only want to know why does iPhone 11, 12 and 12 mini have ultrawide second camera instead of telephoto… I myself would rather have a telephoto option than wideangle, like iPhone X or Xs.
My iPad Pro has that big,square camera array too…..Fun stuff "…..
You told that they needed 2 cameras for a portrait mode but now they are offering phones that have a portrait mode without 2 cameras like the iphone SE2 and iphone XR. How did they do that?
Evolution of software
Because that's nonsense ^^ You never needed two cameras for that. Samsung had selective focus which basically is the same for many years and it always worked with only one lens.
Back with the iPhone X you even could block the main lens with you finger and still could take portrait shots because it actually only used the telephoto camera and NOT both.
@@Raja995mh33 it’s probably using the second camera for a more accurate depth of field but I do agree software has come along way!
Plzz tell does 3 lens iPhone are better than 2 lens iPhone or not
Someone: Why iphone has three cameras?
Me: Because apple wants to!
For some reason the video was black but i refreshed it and it seems to be good
How many Sensors does it have?
Can you make a video on what will happen with jailbreaking after the epic and apple trial has ended. Please it’s nothing about it and I want to hear someone’s thoughts. It seems like epic is going to win this one.
Did anyone else realise that sometimes he says: this is Greg with apple explained and other times from apple explained?
How can you stitch the edges together like in 3:30?
Next camera one should be a periscope
samsung: we want all more things than apple more phones and more cameras
Oh but the thing is that two is probably fake but one is for use because if you block two of the three lenses nothing happens but if you block one specific lense it blocks it but the other two it doesn’t block anything
