Vivo Nex full screen smartphone launched

I never said that...
I did sayI never saw the point in them, until I got a dog. Maybe you're getting your dogs and Cat-The-Fifths mixed up?


All the more reason for the 3D, then!

Lol cat and dogs they're all animals right? I understand...but it would be commercial suicide to get rid of a front facing camera!

[3dcandy]

True, but Samsung. And the price :O.

Gonna cost you whatever with stereo and speaker on top edge for calls. Price, well it's a flagship - your call
Can't think of anything else that fits your bill of top of head. Not that I'm trying hard to be fair

[Ttaskmaster]

apparently I needed to call it bokeh(a Japanese term),which apparently was made more popular from the late 1990s by people I never heard off, and seems to have gotten more popular a term in the last decade.

I thought it actually was the Selfie animal face, so I Googled it.
Still a silly term. Sounds like something an Auteur would talk in great detail about!!

its trying to emulate portrait photos done in the studio to a degree

I'm sure I have a 'feature' on my camera app, that does this anyway...?

proper camera jargon

Yeah, ^that's why I'd find someone (like a hobbyist) with a proper camera to take the pictures - Better than anything my phone could do, anyway!

[Ttaskmaster]

Lol cat and dogs they're all animals right?

Err.... why yes, they are... well done.
Next week, we'll try and get you recognising different fruits....

But yeah, the easiest way to take a pic of the cute sleeping furbaby curled up against your neck, without disturbing them, is with a front camera. More than one such shot of mine has made it to a calendar!

Also, the easiest way to capture half the stuff they get up to behind your back, is by going over your shoulder witha front camera!

but it would be commercial suicide to get rid of a front facing camera!

*I* do not disagree with this at all.....

[3dcandy]

Bokeh is a term "proper" camera people get very excited about. It costs lots of money too

Apple is a fruit right? I'm getting this game now...

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

LOL. Yeah,well apparently if I call it out of focus regions,I get perplexed looks,so have to use it. Since its Japanese,that means I know another language,right??

I'm sure I have a 'feature' on my camera app, that does this anyway...?

Probably. The second camera acts as a depth sensor to measure distance,and all that AI stuff you seem to be hearing about nowadays,is basically hardware/software which tries to morph it into something which resembles a portrait. Google,Apple,etc have basically scanned loads of portraits,and then made some points,which they think is indicative of a portrait picture,and then shoehorns that into the picture artificially. Think of a morph tool in image editing software.

If your phone only has one camera,it will attempt to do the same thing more randomly. You could probably do it in PS yourself.

Yeah, ^that's why I'd find someone (like a hobbyist) with a proper camera to take the pictures - Better than anything my phone could do, anyway!

Full sized cameras have advantages no doubt(although probably not as convenient I suppose). Well I am also one of those weirdos,who would rather spend under £250 on a phone,and then use the £400 to £500 saved on a top notch phone on my camera setup or decentish prosumer compact,instead of the latest and greatest mobile picture taking device. As many have seen me yapping on about, I do expect more with the high end phone camera wise,considering how much more they cost then something more budget like Xiaomi Mi A1. The Huawei P20 PRO though,is a step in the right direction.

Apple are certainly something beginning with F, yes...

OK, here's a challenge... Louis Spence - Fruit or animal?

LOL. Yeah,well apparently if I call it out of focus regions,I get perplexed looks,so have to use it.

Call it soft-focus background, or something. In fact, make up your own terms. So long as your attitude is right, you'll make them feel silly for not knowing the most up-to-date fashionable words!

Since its Japanese,that means I know another language,right??

Nope.
If it meant that, I wouldn't get Banhammered for using my other language!!

[3dcandy]

Louis Spence is definitely mineral...
Me and Cat we'll argue (fairly respectably) about anything...
I have a Canon dslr and all the kit, and a Gear 360. I use whatever I have with me. Lugging the Canon aboot is a real chore

If it didn't have a notch then the OP6. I'm regularly searching ebay for a cheap 5T. But at the same time I'm not desperate to upgrade. My OPO is still going amazingly strong.

Only for cam whores who obsessively take selfies.

And everyone who tried to sell me on Smartphones, back when I was using things that ran Windows Mobile 5.5... Rarely did I meet someone who hadn't dropped/sat on their stupidly big plates of glass and damaged the screen, despite using protectors.
Incidentally, when you say "cam whores"..... to which ones do you refer?

Everybody wants the greatest amount of screen real estate in the smallest phone possible!

I really hate that term, usually bandied about by the Selfie generation of marketing executives.
Real estate is land and buildings, ie property that cannot easily be moved... not what we've always referred to as 'screen space' or 'screen area'!!!

All I see is some pointless obfuscation & fudging of the issue by some whiner who doesn't understand the basic point of all these bezel-less design pushes by various brands.

So let me explain it simply to you whiners and moaner type Fruit Phone types.

1. Not everybody cares about selfie cams as much as you cam whores.
2. EVERYBODY wants as large a screen size as possible in the SMALLEST PHONE POSSIBLE. SCREEN "REAL ESTATE" - because it is PRECIOUS G.E.D.D.I.T? Because the screen is truly useful the most useful thing when in use.

Then you're clearly not looking with your eyes open, kid.
But hey, you seem to like hurling abuse and picking fights, so bring it on...

Oh, please do.... This should be entertaining.

1. Not everybody cares about selfie cams as much as you cam whores.

Clearly they do, as so many phones come with one.

2. EVERYBODY wants as large a screen size as possible in the SMALLEST PHONE POSSIBLE. SCREEN "REAL ESTATE" - because it is PRECIOUS G.E.D.D.I.T?

Who is this "everybody" you're talking about, kid?
It's not Real Estate. Real Estate is land and buildings. This is just a bit of glass with a few wires on it. GEDDIT?
Dress it up in whatever pretentious marketing terminology BS makes you feel special, it's still not Real Estate.

Because the screen is truly useful the most useful thing when in use.

That doesn't mean it needs to be as big as possible.

I'm sure it's really clever and all, but I don't know what it's referencing so your joke is wasted...

[peterb]

Fruit Phone types.

Orange doesn't exist any more, it was sold and became 3 or EE (can't remember which)

Unless you are referring to a type of fruit bat or fruit fly...

[Tabbykatze]

I'm sure it's really clever and all, but I don't know what it's referencing so your joke is wasted...

Not to me. It's a gif closely related to the "Burn!" that you gave Preter. But now that I had to explain it, it's ruined. Oh well.
