According to “yeux1122” on the Korean blog Naver, Apple is reportedly testing a camera lens with new coating technology named atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the iPhone 16 Pro models. This new coating will improve the photography quality, which could eliminate lens flare or ghosting artefacts in photos or videos.

This has been one of the Achilles heels of the previous iPhones, especially when you click photos, that many users report lens flaring issues.  ALD technology allows for precise control over the thickness and composition of materials, by providing anti-reflective coating on the camera lens. Even with the much-improved iPhone 15 Pro cameras, lens flaring still persists.
