An alleged internal document posted by a Foxconn employee on Weibo suggests that the next-generation iPhone models may in fact include an upgraded camera at a 12-megapixel resolution capable of recording 4K video, iPhoneArena reports. This latest information seemingly corroborates earlier analyst predictions on a pixel upgrade for the new device, as well as multiple rumors suggesting that the new models will also get an increase to 2GB of RAM.

While the original documents have since been removed from Weibo, copies have been making the rounds online. They also mention internal model numbers of N66 for the iPhone 6S and N71 for the iPhone 6S Plus, and suggest that the front camera on both models will be an upgrade to 5 megapixels.
