Several sources have been claiming that the flagship iPhone 15 Pro Max plans to implement a periscope zoom lens. So, what does this mean?

As of right now, it seems that the periscope lens is only in the plans for the iPhone 15 Pro Max, while the Pro will receive the standard zoom lens. This means the more entry level models are limited to the wide and ultra wide lenses, according to MacRumors.
Multiple other high-end phones feature a periscope lens, such as major rivals Samsung – with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. This can only mean that Apple are put under pressure to adopt this technology.
