Is there a difference between the camera mode you are describing and what Huawei phones have done for years?

The reason I ask is that when they announced the feature I automatically assumed it would be different but what you describe is practically identical to how Huawei phones have operated since the P9. I thought it was already possible on Apple's dual lens phones.

Or is not so much what it does as how it does it?

It looks like it's doing the same type of adjustments, but I'm not sure why you mention it. For starters, when has Apple been first to anything, and yet new release you have to claim that some other company—which now seems to be Huawei, a company that makes Samsung look honest—did something first.

Is Apple's algorithm really as bad as Huawei's? First of all, here's a screenshot of the video you posted where the presenter is showing how you can blur the foreground to make the background come into view yet he background is still blurry as fuck. It seems like it's better for adjusting bokeh, but that's not what the video is doing as noted by the coffee cup getting blurry.

Finally, what's YOUR point? Why do you keep mentioning other, shittier products in conversations about Apple that were never asked. You're the THIRD reply in this thread! Is your goal to just jack the thread with your nonsense?

My point was in that third post. Asked, explained, asked again, explained again, and again, and again.

Why don't YOU get it?

You know, if I explain it again, you still won't get it. Of that I'm sure.

Let me ask you a question: What's the point of a  Schiller shows the original photo with their bokeh effect in play"


In this second photograph Schiller shows how they've adjust the bokeh effect so that the background stands out more WITHOUT altering the primary subject in the foreground:

So, why in the world would someone want for the object they took a photo of to become blurry like the background of the photo? These don't have the physical components to mimic Lytro! Bottom line: Huawei ain't got nothing but their typical snake oil to sell.

Can you see anything there that speaks about what you just posted - and in the context of what you said? Is what you just highlighted anywhere in the article?

NO!

My question was related to the article, not what Schiller said. You know that because I said - right here in this thread - that I didn't see the presentation.

So, what is here - in the article?

Aperture feature. Changing depth of field.

What is in my question and link?

Aperture mode. Changing depth of field.

That is how I read it anyway.

Maybe you are starting to understand now?

I mentioned my 'surprise'. Why do you think that was?

Well, did you check the date of the video I linked to? Early 2017. Do you know when the P9 was released? April 2016.

No NPU. No Bionic.

So, when I read this piece, I say to myself, what's new in that - the feature? Hadn't all dual lens iPhones had that feature from the start?

I just took for granted they had.

So, what did I do? I asked a question!

Brilliant eh?

Now let me ask you a question.

Do you agree that it was possible to simply give an answer and clear things up in ONE post?

Easy, right?

Spheric and Gatorguy,

Thank you for the time and effort in trying to inject some reason and common sense here, but there is only so much one can do before things become futile.

in a response to Spheric a couple of post above, I rewrote your question such that it was less provocative. 

I have reposted it here;

"I have an Honor 10, that has a similar feature, Would anyone like to explain to me how Portrait Mode with the adjustable aperture works? I would like to make a comparison".

Do you think that it might have gotten better results?
