In an interview with Walt Mossberg (The Wall Street Journal), the PD-G Sony has admitted he made the photo sensors for Apple and if the details remain slim, these statements seem to confirm the rumors that speak of a unit 8 Megapixels integrated camera in the iPhone 5. During the interview, Sir Howard Stringer was surprised he made his best sensors for Apple.
This immediately aroused the interest of the press. Indeed, until now, the sensors of iPhone, including the iPhone 4, are produced by OmniVision. Gold since April 2010, rumors say that Cupertino had asked to produce sensors that go in the smartphone in 2011. This would be the R 8 Megapixel Exmor already present in the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo and that would have been retained.
The problem is that Sony's factories have been greatly affected by the earthquake in Japan. According to rumors, this is why Apple would be forced to delay the marketing of the phone until September. It will however wait until June and the WWDC, which is generally synonymous with iPhone and iOS ads for more details.
One thing is certain, this comment from the Sony PD-G does not seem trivial and should not be happy with Apple is known for wanting to limit disclosure on its unannounced products.
