At some point in time, selfies were nothing but just mere shots of your face, up close, used to highlight good scenery on the background. Quality was just short of dismal.
As technology progressed, advancements in software and hardware have paved the way for the rise of front-facing cameras that offer better resolution and image quality. In-fact, some even equal their rear counterpart. These, in turn, have transformed taking selfies from a mere trend, to a skill and artform.
Companies like Vivo are at the forefront of creating technology that continues to enhance the smartphone experience. This includes upping the ante on the quality of selfies.
The V15 Pro for example, has been renowned for its superb front camera which takes fantastic looking shots even in low-light conditions. Not to mention that it also boasted an AI-assisted triple rear camera system.
Building on its predecessor, the V17 Pro is equipped with another first – a pair of front cameras – a 32MP main camera paired with an 8MP super wide-angle shooter with a 105-degree field of view.
The device’s front cameras are tucked behind its notch-less Super AMOLED Ultra FullView Display, housed in a pop-up mechanism that’s quick to activate and retract.
Thanks to the Super Wide-Angle Camera, users can easily take groufies or even a panoramic view of what’s in the background.
At night, the Selfie Softlight adds the proper amount of illumination, along with an exclusive Super Night Selfie mode which combines multiple frames into one image to make one’s face stand out.
There’s even a feature called Pose Master, which suggests the right poses for your background, making selfies even more creative.
Vivo V17 Pro also boasts four rear cameras – a 48MP main, 8MP super wide-angle, and a pair of 2MP sensors for depth and macro shots.
