It has the ability to take pet photos in portrait mode. That’s “that blurry background effect,” the website explains.
When this fact was announced at the $700 phone’s launch event, the audience applauded.
Portrait mode for pets is a feat that the iPhone XR, released in 2018, could not achieve — the mode was strictly for people. That’s because the phone had a single camera lens. The iPhone 11 has a dual-lens-camera system.
The iPhone X and iPhone XS also had dual-lens-camera systems, allowing them to take portrait mode photos of pets and objects.
