Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is bringing an improved portrait video mode

20 January 2023
The new flagship will capture video at a higher resolution and it will create a better separation between the subject and the background.

How to ad live focus video in samsung glaxy a54 5g?

    I can't wait, I have been a happy S20, S21, and S22 customer. The 4K portrait is something to look forward to... and, no, it's not turning the phone around to get "portrait" - completely different. My S22 Ultra lasts for about 3 days if I don't use it much which is more than enough for me.

      jason, 21 Jan 2023no removable battery no headphone jack no sd card slo... more1. Removable battery is the PAST. If you want to have a 6000 or 7000mAh battery for long-term battery life inside a phone which not too MUCH THICK., OK? I used LG V20 before with removable battery and 3200mAh capacity of its is very very bad, worse than ever 3000mAh Li-po non-removable of Galaxy S7. Li-po battery is better than OLD Li-ion removable battery :))

      2. Headphone jack 3.5mm: Unless your phone have external DACs like LG G/V series, or you must ignore it, because you NEVER can be able to enjoy Audiophile in a smartphone with internal DAC from SOCs like WCD of Snapdragon,.... using True wireless is better because delay is not enough to notice anymore

      3. No SD Card slot and No have charger in box: Total agree with you

If you are already using a flagship, just use it for 4-5 years since the update now for Samsung is also 5 years, just make your money worth then when you upgrade few years down the road, the upgrade is huge. How much better can a yearly upgrade be? lol

                  no removable battery

                  no headphone jack

                  no sd card slot

                  no charging brick

                  This lack of features ends, when the consumer says so.

                        Awesome, Samsung is the best

                            Is anybody even using "video portrait" mode? In contrast to stills/portrait photography, background blur is mostly not desired in video/film, and if, then only in very miniscule amounts with just a tiny little hint of blurriness.
                            I wish Samsung had invested more in upgrading their sensor hardware. The two tele lens modules would greatly benefit from larger sensors and brighter lenses.

                              Well, portrait video mode can't get any worse, so any change is automatically an improvement.

                                  IMX989 should be better than HP2 with VERY SMALL sensor size, bad ScamSung

                                    Is anyone excited about this? I mean, is there something to be excited about with this release?
