Pretty interesting if true..

the AI capabilities in the camera are going to be the most advanced feature for this device and it'll offer better portrait mode.

I like all the features & rumored features. AI, dual 1.6 aperture cameras, 90% screen to body ratio..

I like the rumor that it will be 16:9

Looks like it'll be 16:9 AND 2:1. So many choices!?

I wonder how f1.6 has been achieved on this phone?

The holy grail for camera lens junkies is standard lenses @ 1.4 or even the coveted f1.2 aperture.
Are the smartphone optics actually that good currently or is this software trickery now?

As a camera buff I'd rather have great glass and a good eye vs. smartphone after processing to fool me into believing my so-so shot was actually OK.

Yeah, didn't expect that to happen.

Is there a reason why you are quoting yourself?

Whoops, my bad. I quoted the wrong post. I deleted it.

So far, the low light pictures are pretty good with the 1.6 aperture

As it should be.

I did expect it to be a little more brighter picture for low light tho

I would prefer more accurate to brighter.

They crush the blacks a lot imo. They can brighten it up and still show accurate colors if they do it right.

Well let's wait and see what they try to do

I'm sure an updates can fix it a little.

That's true, but I would never purchase a phone based on what can be fixed or improved in updates. I buy it with the idea that it is what it is and that it will never be anything other than that. There's less disappointment that way.

That is true. Portrait mode didn't work on my iPhone 7 Plus when I bought it but it was added in an update

It depends on who is making the promise. I bought my iPhone 7 Plus based on the commitment that it would get portrait mode. And it did.

I guess I don't trust any company when it makes promises about what they will deliver after you make the purchase, including Apple. On their professional video editing software they kept promising features that they never delivered on so my experience is the polar opposite of yours.

I heard the portrait mode in the iPhone were pretty bad when it was first released.
