Two stereoscopic 1080p streams should result in a roughly 2K picture quality, which means it should stand up to SOME zooming, but not much.

But that’s totally not the point. The effect is meant to recreate what you actually saw at the time. Leave the ridiculous zooming in to the police investigations.  

I think the issue is they have to crop the ultra wide lens to match the standard lens and with it only being 12MP it doesn’t leave enough headroom for stabilization, etc. Once the ultra wide goes to 48MP we may get 4k spatial video. I would guess we’ll see 45 or 90 fps as the next upgrade to this feature as well.  

Just add an update section after you connect to wifi in the setup menu. Many devices do this

I won’t upgrade to an iPhone with USB-C. I have 10+ lightning cables and this will result in furthering man made climate change by forcing millions of people like me to go buy all new cables and charging blocks since most of mine are the old usb square blocks and old ipad blocks as well. 

Yes you will. I've heard this trope about every change every company has ever made. Myself, I traded in my buggy whip for an ignition key 50 years ago. And my 4-speed for a 10 speed automatic 4 years ago. And my Apple SCSI, ADC, RS-232, FireWire, Mini DisplayPort, Mini DVI, Mini VGA, and 2.5 mm Mini audio jack.

Don’t tell me what I will or won’t do. You are clueless in this situation. I will simply wait until it goes port less. I can easily hold onto a iPhone 14 for 5+ years if need be. Quit thinking so much of yourself

Why would you wait for it to go portless?  It can do inductive charging now if you are so allergic to USB-C cables. 

It looks to be highly likely that within the next 5 years the iPhone will be portless. I just upgraded my iPhone XS and the only issue was reduced battery life. So short of me losing my phone I won’t upgrade until it’s portless. Nothing to do with usb-c, I was messing around on my first post but then some guy made a douchey reply so I explained he was wrong and he still can’t accept that for some reason
