The company is however said to have developed different apps that can work for the dual-lens camera system. However, it would be interesting to see how Apple uses this technology to the customers benefit apart from just the sales point-of-view. Additionally, one more thing that is stopping Apple is the concern the company faces regarding the suppliers yield to meet the demand.
The reports also claims that Apple has been caught is some technical issue known as the optical axis deviation wherein some of the units took the blurred images.
