TrainingAddict, 17 Nov 2024Macro is probably the most useless feature on a phone. 💀Not as useless as training addiction 🗿💀

    Anonymous, 17 Nov 2024Not really, small details and objects seen larger than they... morePersonally, I would prefer cheaper devices without cameras, but we live in times where everyone takes pictures so it's impossible

          I don't have a use for the front cam at all, this to me is far more useless than a macro mode could ever be.

              Depending what you look up it simply is "showcaseing an object larger than it is in real life".
              Which some phones these days are capable of and have been for the past couple of years without having to rely on the ultrawide.

                  Anton .el PAPI., 17 Nov 2024Do you have it? Where did you buy it and how much did it cost?No. I am thinking of getting it or the Xiaomi 15 or Oneplus 13. I am in China and have OPPO and Xiaomi stores right next to my apartment. Checked the Oneplus on numerous occasions and two significant updates came which focuses on camera improvements, especially video quality and lower noise in video, improved burst mode for action photos, and the new macro mode.

                    Since then a lot of devices had supported Macro mode via UW Camera if it has AF instead of Fixed Focus (Usually UW Cameras are Fixed Focus).

                      That's smth that should've been in from launch tbh

                          It's had two big camera updates already within the first two weeks after it's launch which is a good start

                                I would love it so much but the poor speakers make it unbuyable for me.

                                      OP 13 will be the hit of 2024-2025 !

                                        Hold on, it didn't have one from the start?
                                        That's bizarre
