  • First iPhone 11 Night mode photos demonstrate Apple's illuminating camera tech

    Will be interesting to see if the process takes 5 secs as reported. 
    It said there it takes a second.
    "Another upcoming feature called Deep Fusion goes further by snapping eight frames, analyzing each and stitching together the best sections "pixel-by-pixel" in a process that takes about one second."

    So the new PRO now at Apple means "a little bit extra features" to justify this huge price tag?

    I don't like where this Apple boat has been steering in the last years, it's crazy.

    And also what is Apple Design doing lately? That triple camera design looks like from a students prototype class.

    And that camera design is based on what’s needed to best make the camera system work. It’s why you’re going to see something similar from Google when they announce their new phones. Of course Google’s look like they were just bolted on.

    Its so pathetic and funny to see this. When Huawei launched a triple camera phone everyone was laughing at it. And now Apple puts one out and it's the best thing ever happened to a phone. BTW looking from the design angle on triple camera I think Huawei has made it looking much batter than Apple:


    So this Huawei phone shoot better pictures?
    To many people's eyes, yes. And that (Mate 20 Pro) isn't Huawei's 'photography' phone (that's the P series).

    Beyond 'better', Huawei flagships give you far greater versatility than any iPhone on the market and have done for a fair while. Yesterday's iPhone announcements are a late step in the right direction but few would argue that it has been Huawei that has shown the way over the last few years (and not only in photography).

    Currently the P30 Pro is one of the best photography phones on the market.

    The Mate 30 Pro arrives in just over a week.

    It is true that a few people here tried to write off the tri-camera set-up as some kind of gimmick. The same went for low light photography. 

    As for design, that's a personal thing but I am confident that most people prefer the Huawei designs and by a large margin.

    In my book the Mate 30 Pro will also be very well liked.

    The most important thing is that the competition is heating up and that should be good for consumers.



    It's still an Android, so... nah.

    I think it is great that Apple lowered the Price of the iPhone 11 from the iPhone XR.   I think it will motivate many to upgrade.   Now is DED going to do an editorial attacking Tim Cook for lowering the Price.   I imagine they couldn’t lower the price of the 11Pro because of what they pay Samsung for the OLED screen.
    But the storage still starts at 64GB. The latest Galaxy phones as well as Huawei’s flagship phones all start at 128GB.
    That's not fair because the Galaxy phones are probably better just because of the QualComm modem.    I guess Apple just couldn't get QC in time and had to stick with the crappy Intel.   Cook has hurt the phone so bad with his failed game of intimidation and bullying.   
    I think I missed /sarcasm note somewhere. I sincerely hope you are not serious.

  • iPhone 11: How Apple makes tech of the future affordable

    Actually you will be surprise. There are plenty of people who are willing to pay for premium phone (>1k) especially in Asia, don't underestimate social status is a powerful thing.

  • iPhone 11: How Apple makes tech of the future affordable

    Not sure I understand the headline, but I agree with some of the points made. I always think Apple always offer too many options (colors, size, storage, pro, non-pro) but in general people will pick the most expensive one and then proceed to complain it's too expensive. Some even argue that with the 'same tech/hardware' they could get cheaper price elsewhere. Wrong. There is only one iPhone, you can't get exactly the same tech/hardware anywhere else. And no, Android is not an iPhone.
