Apple's New iPhone X Video Focuses on Selfies Taken With Portrait Lighting

They never look like this when I take photos. They must be using real studio lighting to sell fake studio lighting fx...

How about some real life lighting?

What a cool documentary highlighting the problem with our society: our fascination with self, and the technology that enables our....what?.... oh.... commercial for Apple.

Nevermind.

Not a very good ad, and there's more to the iPhone X than portrait selfies and animoji.

I wish Apple would do some (albeit shorter) follow ups to the "Meet iPhone X" ad which really showcased the device.

They used a slashed face again in this one. See on the right.

These look horrible. I almost think Apple is doing on purpose. If they keep showing photos like this they will become common place and acceptable to the masses. Zac Hall from 9to5Mac uses a portrait shot for his twitter photo. It looks like someone used scissors to cut around his head and tape it to a black background.

Ooooooh, lookat me. I soooo pretty. I take my picture and look at it over and over. Tell myself how pretty i am and send to everyone so they can tell me how pretty i am. I soooo pretty. Thanks Apple, look I soooo pretty. Can i send you photo too, Apple. I take pretty picture of myself with your phone and you must want to see me too. Ooooh sooo pretty. Mwah, mwah, mwah. Luv-a-ly. Apple need to set up text line, like when facetime first came out so i can share all my pretty me photos with Apple employees in China. We love you Apple, you make such pretty, durable products for professionals, like me. Mwaaaaaaah!

Hmmm...okay. She swiped left didn't she?

I was thinking the exact same thing. I get very good portrait photos when I use the camera on the back. The front camera of my iPhone X....no way. And I do think I know a thing or two about cameras and pictures..
