  • Apple and the future of photography in Depth: iPhone 8 Plus

    "Other vendors out of their depth"

    "Huawei recently collaborated with Leica to deliver a phone with two cameras..."

    I disagree with this placement.

    Huawei is largely accepted as the first mainstream manufacturer to make photographic use of dual cameras (months ahead of Apple  - 'portrait' mode included) and is far from 'out of its depth'. In either of the interpretations.

    I would say that no Huawei dual camera phone has been out of its depth at any point in time.

    Does Huawei make any use of depth imaging? That's what was being communicated. According to its marketing, it uses two identical camera sensors with the same lens, one supposedly capturing color and the other luminance. "Out of depth" was an obvious allusion to the subject of the article.

    Thanks DED for the article and this point of clarification.  Always love how Google always get their pre-production devices reviewed by these sites and people are so gullible about the results.
    The sad thing is the tech media says with a straight face that the Pixel camera is superior 100% based on DXO.
    the tech media has been cheering on Android and vilifying Apple for the last ten years. Android has never been so far behind and Apple keeps making more money than all Android licensees put together by a huge margin. The verge and all don't seem to be very effective in propagating their world view in a consequential fashion.

  • Other smartphones joining Apple's iPhone X with 3D sensor module delays

    From the end of the Digitimes report: "Nevertheless, it would take a longer time for smartphone vendors to establish the relevant application ecosystem, involving firmware, software and apps, needed to support the performance of 3D sensing modules than to support the function of fingerprint recognition or touch control. This will constitute the largest barrier to the incorporation of 3D sensors into smartphones, the sources continued."

    It’s difficult to say this is one of your best articles, Dan.  Because almost all are excellent and many many levels above and beyond what pretty much anyone else out there writes.  But I found this one especially clarifying.  Just excellent work.
    Thanks! That's nice to hear.
