If people like it, then why isn't it good? Photography, art in general, is preference based. If it's not the "most realistic" but it's what people prefer, then that is "correct. Perception and preference are subjective things - and in the big scheme of things, that's what matters.People always go for the overly saturated colors, thinking that's what makes a good photograph. It doesn't.
You have a point; the Mona Lisa is worth quite a bit more than even a superb photographic image of the same woman (if not associated with the renowned painting) would be.OTOH there is something to be said for starting out with a highly realistic photo, then post processing it into a cartoon, or whatever you feel like. In the sense that you can always move away from realism - but if you start out with a cartoon, lots of luck converting it into a realistic image.
But if in fact you always want the cartoon . . .
Interesting.
Jumped on the 5se as soon as it was released, but held off on replacing Grandma's iPad.
...sometimes I do guess right, but I'll hold on gloating about this one until that "presumably" becomes a reality.
It is just a phone that ignites every so often. I guess that makes it scary.
Evidence is good. Provide a link.
thanks for the thanks, Tube.
They're either misinformed or lying. It may be here now, in the form of the adiabatic quantum computers made by D-Wave.
What are you posting irrelevancies for except to interject disruption?
Swordmaker is scary : )
I thank you for your hard, and often thankless (and frequently ridiculed) work in keeping me up to date on the Apple postings. It’s difficult to keep up on everything and you do an amazing job condensing the news for me.
I really appreciate your work

The iPhone 7 was indeep bested by the Google Pixel by DxO; however the test results for the Dual Camera iPhone 7 Plus have not been received yet.
So, before making blanket statements; how about we wait and see what the results are?
“So the S7 has the better camera, too!”
Phone exploding while you take a picture: Priceless!
The iPhone 7 camera is top-notch. :-)
