This isn’t a rumor anymore. Lenovo has launched its new 5-inch Lenovo VIBE S1 smartphone , which features two front cameras and an attractive curved-glass back design available in two color options.
Why dual selfie cameras?
Lenovo claims that the dual selfie cameras of Vibe S1 – 8MP primary front camera takes the sharpest photos. Its 2MP secondary front camera analyzes depth of field information to replicate human binocular vision.
After taking a selfie with both cameras, there are various options to modify the selfie by selecting from a number of built-in photo editing tools. ‘Blur’ allows refocusing anywhere on the seflie (up to 3 focal plains) or adding a ‘bokeh’ effect to the background to stylize a selfie or simply to get rid of a photo bomber. With ‘Cut Out’, people can be cropped out of a selfie and then placed on any other image (from a wide selection preloaded on the VIBE S1 or downloaded from the internet), and even on a photo taken with the rear camera of the VIBE S1 smartphone. For instance, No matter where the selfie photo is captured, the person in it can be cut out and placed in front of the Eifel Tower or the Taj Mahal for instance.
Night or lowlight selfies are now possible with the VIBE S1’s front camera BSI sensor that improves the clarity and quality of after-dark selfies. And for the true selfie expert, the experience can never be complete without the VIBE Xtension plug-in selfie flash that allows up to 100 picture-perfect selfies on a single charge, at once achieving a more natural color tonality in the selfies taken in low-light conditions.
The Vibe S1’s 13MP rear camera boasts of phase-detection autofocus that dramatically increases focusing speed. Plus, a dual-color flash optimizes color tones based on ambient lighting.
