Call me evil but PA, i can't help but think why wouldn't people bring up the biased issue up when even the rumor for the next iPhone has such a grand opening.
"Let the rumors begin..." that's really grand compared to things like "Samsung Galaxy SIV to have unbreakable glass..."

I really think that this is indeed an innovation. Using the differential signals to calculate the correct white balance is commendable. You shouldn't bash everything because it's Apple, dude.

I agree...there's something worth taking into consideration. If i'm not wrong, the calculations has to be precise to get the timing right for a great photo. And taking note that iPhones have good photo taking capability, this should be a great plus.

Not worth $199.99 on contract.

They best come with the kitchen sink next round, because this alone is meaningless for most people.

I see people daily (daily) using upgrades to snatch Galaxy S3's and Lumias. More so the former than the latter, all while tossing their old 4 and 4S units in a nearby recycle box.

Dude.

Most certainly is not. A blue tint on the next iPhone plus the purple tint on the current iPhone is going to be revolutionary because given the rainbow spectrum the possibilities are going to be infinite. It breaks down this way:

Blue + Purple = Indigo

Then, if they add a touch of pink on the following iteration they will have:

Blue + Purple + Pink = Violet

Add some yellow or cadmium and you got something never seen before and that's why it will be revolutionary. Oh, I can't wait..... and, by then, the screen size should be up to 4.201".

Yayyyyyy Apple -- take my money too!!

so apple is catching up with 2009/2010-era phones with adding another LED. It's revoflashionary!

This is likely a Sony innovation apple is wanting on its next device. Personally, I'd rather have Xenon (just looking at flash-lit samples from the Nokia 808PV and N8 make me flash-envious, although LED is faster for now)

you will count it as innovation, as soon as samsung copied it

Fellow dudes, those dual LEDs and this one's different... That's just normal flash, this one as some work behind it. The capability to adapt to the scene in the frame.
"The premise of the patent was also to get light with different intensity and different angles adjusted to the various scenes that appear in front of your lens..."

ok then tell what apple has invented in phones
what different tech has apple in mobile market

You'll be waiting for a long, long time for an answer to that one.

If you forget that Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, Ericcson, LG, Sony, RIM, and HTC ever existed, coupled with the plane of technology stolen from a parallel universe similar to the one seen on the television show "Fringe" where Apple IS actually the innovator, you would find that Apple was the first to market with EVERYTHING.

Just saying.

Was the HTC ONE X camera that good? Really i want to know. The reason I didn't get a One X was because alot of the reviews said the camera was overhyped. I was just reading a 2012 disappointment list and the One X was on it for it's camera. I haven't had a chance to mess around with one yet.

40. gazmatic posted on 18 Dec 2012, 10:20 5 0

i made a booboo there i have the onex+

it basically has the same camera as the onex

and yes the camera is awesome...

not perfect but much better than the iphone5

the iphone5 is the most overhyped phone i've ever bought

especially since i paid $1200 for it...

disappointed is not the word i would use here

people need to remember that outside of america we dont get subidized phones, plus we have to deal with customs, plus taxes and VAT and there is no playstore

all in all I.ve spent over $6000 for these phones...

to rate these phones it would be
lumia
onex+
nexus
gs3
ip5

this of course is from MY personal experience with the phones

41. lauremar posted on 18 Dec 2012, 11:14 1 0

I agree! I have the Nokia Lumia 920 and it has by far the best camera on a smartphone. I don't have to carry a phone and camera at the same time now that I can have both in one device. Awesomeness!!!
