Many resent that since the model 4S has been no upgrade of camres resolution which stayed on the 8 MP. Of course, it’s not everything in megapixels, but sensor which is till more important. However, the new Apple iPhone model 6s / + has a camera of 12 MP.
The latest generation is not only much thinner and lighter, but also contains options that the first generation could only dream of. Then the iPhone came equipped with a 2 megapixel camera and there was no ability to record video. iPhone 6s now has an 12 megapixel camera, the ability to record video and some other tools to help you better photographing and recording.
