LG superfan, 16 Oct 2017Whats the difference between selective focus and portrait mode?Selective Focus is for object's less than 50cm away vs portrait mode which is more design to take..well.. or portrait so the subject is further away. With Selective Focus you can determine to blur the foreground or background - portrait mode you cannot, you only adjust the amount of blur.

LG superfan, 16 Oct 2017Whats the difference between selective focus and portrait mode?Using selective focus, you have to be within 20" of your subject. It works great btw within those parameters. Once you take the photo using selective focus, you have the option to view it as if you've focused close, far, or all pan (i.e., everything is in focus). Then you save the shot with whichever you want. Portrait mode, instead, allows you to focus on the person/people (not limited to 20") and will blur the background, maybe even will offer different possible blurs. I've seen it on iPhone and the person almost looks 3D'ish, standing in front of the background. Nice option for a camera.

LG superfan, 16 Oct 2017Whats the difference between selective focus and portrait mode?Portrait: defocus whole background
Selective focus : you choose part that you do not want to be defocus.
My guess.....

so you don't have portrait mode with you $1000 "smartphone"??
OMG, everytime i read about new phones i get even more dissapointed.
Hybrid dual sims, no 3.5 jack, no sd card at all, no portrait mode. Phones are becoming worse every day

Anonymous, 16 Oct 2017Even old Z1 ( 2013) has this. It is called Defocus Background. Well No.. This is based on ML and is far more accurate and closer to the real thing if Pixel 2 is anything to go by..

AnonD-541704, 16 Oct 2017Samsung had this feature way before Apple.
https://imgur... moreSo true. The number of times Apple has copied Samsung is cringe worthy. Now they are even bringing the S-Pen to the next iteration.
Btw the dual pixel sensor on the new Pixel 2 was first in the S7, so obviously Samsung has had this focus way before others. Maybe they shouod have advertised it more and refined it a little.

They're just updating it. It's been there since the S7 on marshmallow and it works pretty well.
Most if not all features that Apple adds are just a next iteration of a feature Samsung had that didn't get any coverage in the west.

Will the S7 series also get that feature too, since both S7 and S8 have the same camera. BTW selective focus on S7 really sucks!
