If I had to choose what impressed me most about the evolution of daily technology over the past 20 years, phone cameras would be high on the list. And one thing that I like about Apple is just raising the bar every time. Speaking of photos.
No. The bump will get bigger, not smaller.Any chance that this could spell the end of the camera bump and we can finally lay our phones flat again without wobbling when you type?
If you need that much zoom, buy a full on camera.iPhones honestly seem like they need to pick up the pace with the lack of optical zoom. It’s 2020 and the flagship iPhone currently only has 2x optical zoom yet Huawei is packing in 5x optical zoom and likely will soon push out 10x. Apple has got to step their game up.
It's funny how a few years ago people were complaining about Apple's obsession with form over function.I doubt it. It doesn’t seem to be a very high priority for Apple. Like the notch, I think Apple will continue to choose function over form.
They still do 🙂 The argument shifts back and forth depending on the specific feature being discussed, with Apple being crapped on either way 🤷♂️It's funny how a few years ago people were complaining about Apple's obsession with form over function.
The Huawei P40 Pro Plus can already 10x optical zoom. Apple is years behind.iPhones honestly seem like they need to pick up the pace with the lack of optical zoom.

suppose that it is really difficult to make a good optical zoom in such a small camera (distortion issues or whatsoever...), and that Apple wants to make it right rather than make it fast (Hello SpyHuawei).

Apple wants to make it right rather than make it fast? So you are suggesting that there's something wrong with current Periscope smartphone cameras? What? I'm really curious.Agreed, zoom would be very nice.

I'm suggesting that this is usually the case, and that when Apple comes into the market, they put the bar much higher than it was before.Apple wants to make it right rather than make it fast?

Huawei's P40 Pro Plus's Periscope camera is without question the best on the market right now. What exactly can Apple do better? Actually P40 Pro Plus's camera system is currently the best on the market and really pushing the boundaries on what's possible on a smartphone today.
Quality for Periscope cameras on Android phones has been fantastic since day 1.Don't forget Apple is never the first on the market. But when they arrive, the quality is fantastic.
Oh, so you don't know, you are just are making generalizations for fun.I'm suggesting that this is usually the case, and that when Apple comes into the market, they put the bar much higher than it was before.
I don't know enough about this specific case (cameras) to have an accurate advice on this. You might be right.
Possibly.Yeah came out this year. I’m sure samsung will add this in 2021
Loving phones or companies is obviously your department, I only care for the truth.I don't want to get into a fight with you. Please ignore my messages if they disturb you, this wasn't my intention. It's really good that you love your phone.
What's wrong with Samsung's implementation of the Periscope camera?That’s the whole point, no? Companies like Samsung can do it so early because they sacrifice the implementation for the sake of being first.
It is the point. There's only so much you can get out of a phone. Samsung has shown us you can do 100x zoom if you want, but beyond 1-2x it's useless anyway.That’s not the point though is it? Hardly a sensible reply. You want it in your pocket where you can get good zoom. That kind of mindset is why apple make people wait for features.
And what's wrong with a smartphone giving you that zoom range?If you need that much zoom, buy a full on camera.
Nonsense, up to 30X Samsung's zoom quality is fantastic rivaling dedicated cameras in some instances.It is the point. There's only so much you can get out of a phone. Samsung has shown us you can do 100x zoom if you want, but beyond 1-2x it's useless anyway.
I see your point.It is the point. There's only so much you can get out of a phone. Samsung has shown us you can do 100x zoom if you want, but beyond 1-2x it's useless anyway.
Comments like the above are disingenuous, at best.I need ultra crisp and clear long range zoom.
Cool, thanks for the tip! Will consider waiting until 2030 then.Might as well wait until 2030. There may be reports of a truly wireless iPhone with distance charging and other high tech features 🤣
What's wrong with Samsung's implementation of the Periscope camera?
And Samsung wasn't even the first, Huawei was the fist to launch a phone with a Periscope camera.
What's wrong with it? The quality. It's terrible. Even 2x sucks on most phones. They're not big enough to put the components you need for high quality images.And what's wrong with a smartphone giving you that zoom range?

not a Zoom at all, just a higher FL. an actual Zoom would be nice, since you'd get the steps in between at optical clarity, not some digital zoom function on the shorter FL lens.iPhones honestly seem like they need to pick up the pace with the lack of optical zoom.
