I could see them trying to make a larger sensor, mirrorless style camera, a la the Fuji X-Series, but I think the price would end up being just as much if not more than an iPhone 13 Pro. I would be very curious to see what they do but I don't think that price point is really competitive and I don't know how many photographers would be willing to jump into ANOTHER camera/lens system.

I think it'd make the most sense with a fixed, smartphone-type flat lens. There'd be more space to fit a lens so potentially there could be optical zoom like some phones already have. Interchangeable lenses would add no differentiation.
