Google's first Android phone rivaled the iPhone like BlackBerry, Nokia never could. Using the first Android in an iPhone world: It was awesome. And the number one "missing" feature is.. I've been watching Android for 10 years, from the moment it first blinked to life on the T-Mobile G1 phone. It grew up with support for on-screen controls and reached its teenage years with the Google Assistant. That's an impressive feat for a mobile platform that already started far behind BlackBerry, Windows Mobile and Apple's then year-old iOS.

Android survived where many rivals perished, thanks to its high levels of customization and Google's search, maps and Gmail apps right in your pocket, We even predicted back in 2008 that Android could "overtake Apple's darling" iPhone, and we were right, Android currently runs on roughly 85 percent of the world's phones, Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic, We delete comments that violate our policy, which we encourage you to read, Discussion threads vaja folio iphone xs max premium leather case - brown can be closed at any time at our discretion..

The iPhone X took great photos. The XS shots are even better. (Don't forget, the XS also has exactly the same camera as the XS Max.). These specs were pulled from the Halide app (US$5.99) which has a technical readout section that gives a breakdown on both cameras. I took the iPhone XS and iPhone X to the sensory overload that is Candytopia in San Francisco, then around the city, to test the cameras in the real world. When reviewing the images on the phones and on a computer, I was genuinely surprised at the overall improvement in image processing on the XS.

All photos were taken on the default camera app with default settings and HDR turned on, Here's a breakdown of the main differences between the two phones, For the sake of brevity, I didn't focus on areas that remained pretty much unchanged such as slow vaja folio iphone xs max premium leather case - brown motion video, Both phones have portrait mode, but only the XS lets you adjust the blur -- or bokeh -- after the photo has been taken, (Samsung Galaxy phones have let you do this same thing for several years.), Moving the depth control slider simulates changing the aperture of the lens, The wider the aperture (or lower the f-number), the more background blur in your shot..

A portrait taken on the iPhone XS. Apple has made depth control available on all portrait mode photos you take on the front and rear cameras. You can read more about how depth control works in this article. Because the effect is generated through image processing, it doesn't always have the same qualities as "creamy" bokeh from a DSLR lens. It just increases the blur around your subject. That being said, the effect can look really good -- like when your subject is far enough away from the background and you choose the widest simulated aperture of f/1.4. But in other situations, the effect can look a little synthetic.

If you don't make any adjustments to the depth-control slider and just leave portrait photos as-is, vaja folio iphone xs max premium leather case - brown both phones produce similar-looking images, The XS captures a bit more detail, as you can see in the image below (focus on the hair), but images from the X have a bit more contrast overall, A new HDR setting on the iPhone XS called Smart HDR helps retain more shadow and highlight detail in photos, according to Apple, It actually does make a difference when it's turned on, Note that it is on by default in Settings > Camera..

The XS with Smart HDR retains more highlight detail than the X, especially in situations like the photo below. Take a look at the detail retained in the window frame. For portraits, Smart HDR gives a much more pleasing effect on faces. It smooths out and softens highlights so lighting looks even. It's like having a personal light box. The same photo from the iPhone X shows more harsh and blown-out highlights. But even with Smart HDR turned off, the iPhone XS does appear to have slightly more dynamic range than the X. Here's the same image from the XS (with Smart HDR off) and the X (with its regular HDR on).

The selfies you'll take from the iPhone XS' vaja folio iphone xs max premium leather case - brown TrueDepth camera also get an upgrade, Rather than the blown-out backgrounds and crunchy high-contrast look from the X, selfies look more flattering on the XS, In some photos, the X decided my brown hair looked more steely gray when taking selfies with light coming in from overhead, In good lighting conditions, especially when taking photos outdoors, you won't notice a huge difference between photos from the XS and the X, To my eye, colors are slightly more saturated on the older iPhone X..
