the bottom of the pill^WDynamic Island is definitely lower down than the bottom of the notchso it's gonna cut into the usable screen space morealso it looks way more distracting when watching videos

2x setting by cropping in the main sensor, but because the sensor is higher res, it's still 12 MPso it might actually be better than the physical 2x sensor on the previous phones

wait, so ProRaw with the 48 MP actually produces 48 MP shots, rather than pixel binning?

tbh, looking at the photos now, the pro "deep purple" would be better if it was more vivid. all of the pro colors are still super subdued

the main camera went wider with the 13 and is now even narrower than the 12?that seems not great, seeing as with the tiny pixels on the 48 MP sensor you'd probably want it to be wider to let in more lightthough i wonder how the physical size of the 4 binned pixels compares to the size of 1 physical pixel on the old sensoriPhone 12 ProMain: f/1.6 apert…

@shadowfacts Generally, probably not. But I could see them *as of today* not wanting to guarantee the service exists more than two years out.
