That is ridiculous to artificially keep the two “Pro” phones on different levels.

As a DIT, I encounter lots of hurdles offloading media to different sources. Although Belkin and OWC have some amazing hubs, this one would be a welcome treat to see if it improves iffload times in a more efficient and organized fashion. Thanks!

Just like last time they restricted the best camera to the Max, I will definitely pass on this generation altogether

My USB ports are going out this would be awesome.

>+5 plus years.

Ehm, sorry, 5 years ago? Try 20. Here’s Phil Askey, founder of DPReview (RIP) on the Minolta DiMAGE X in 2002:

>Just when you thought a 2 megapixel, 3x optical zoom digital camera couldn't get any smaller Minolta turn things on their heads (literally) and produce the diminutive DiMAGE X. This shirt-pocket sized digital camera is just 20 mm thin (0.8 in) and 84 x 72 mm (3.3 x 2.8 in) from the front and weighs in (fully loaded) at just 155 g (5.5 oz). With specs like that you'd be expecting a fixed focal length lens, but no Minolta have innovated, the zoom mechanism is actually on its side within the body of the camera with a prism reflecting the image seen through the first lens element (Minolta dub this 'Folded Optics').

I actually prefer “folded optics,” but looks like periscope is likely going to be the way. Suppose it sounds ‘cooler’ or something.

I had 64 gigs and now I have 512 gigs of hard drive memory. I mean they're both "memory", let's say long-term vs short term

All you have to do is wait one more year then.

It could also be badly translated from Chinese

I’m mixed…. I hate the current Pro phone size, it’s too uncomfortable for me to hold it in one hand. I would love the mini size, but otoh, if the regular Pro is already uncomfortable, why not go with the Max… ugh

Well you’re in luck if you’ve been waiting for this specific feature it came out on a bunch of phones last year:

Samsung Galaxy S22 ultra, Huawei P50 Pro, Honor Magic 4 Pro, Vivo X80 Pro, ZTE Axon 40 Ultra

Edit: mobile sucks so changed formatting)

The periscope zoom is cool but shot for shot, as a camera professional, I prefer what comes out of the iPhone.

They can’t periscope that last mm or whatever to avoid the camera bump?

Is it more advanced than the cameras in the less expensive iPhone? Yes? Well then it’s exactly what I said.

Ehm, sorry, advanced? Huawei had periscope cameras since the P30 Pro (maybe P20 pro), that's like, +5 years ago. Apple shenanigans again.

Lol even better

Trillion*

Oh no, won’t anyone think of the poor multi-trillion dollar company??

Did they download more RAM for you?

You don't have to always buy the latest and greatest. Just wait a year or 2 and you won't be charged 1000+ dollars.

This really sucks as I use my camera a lot and like a smaller phone so having the regular Pro worked for me.

I mean buy a pixel then - they are pretty easily the best bang for the buck out there, esp on sale. My wife is a photographer and gets the pro version - the camera is seriously amazing.

Was this article written by AI?

What does this mean:

> if the company still changes the naming principle.

How does this make sense:

> Kuo claims that the Largan periscope unit costs only $4. In addition, at such a price, the company allegedly cannot make a profit from this direction.

Why is the low cost of the unit an impediment on making profit? Are they trying to say that Apple is only willing to pay $4 for the unit?

The simpler solution is to use the website instead of the app.

I'm still at XR I got as a present. Only thing I did was paid some hacksmiths to install way more memory in it.

The camera really lags behind in comparison to newer models, but other than that it's still really good.
