The camera bump has been accepted by users as a necessary evil for maximizing smartphone photography, but this [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-vision) concept has been designed by Laci Lacko to change this in favor of a more unified experience. The smartphone is characterized by its lack of multiple lenses in favor of a [singular DSLR-inspired lens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xiaomi-modular-optical-system) for seamlessly capturing high-quality images. This transforms the smartphone into a premium photography solution that rethinks what can be done to make the most of the small amount of real estate available on the back of the device.

The iPhone concept functions as a 35mm shooter with an aperture of f1.4, which would work to make the smartphone great for capturing shots in any kind of conditions but really coming to life in low light.
