These days if you want to produce a succeful mobile phone one of the main aspects you need to focus on is the camera, because mobile photography is such an integral thing for many customers. So all manufacturers are trying to get ahead one another with more megapixel, more lenses, more apps, more anything just convince people about their superiority.
Bluboo are one of them and trying to showcase their upcoming Bluboo Maya Max model as the one well equipped for the mobile photographers. I’m not sure how the hard-core ones are going to be impressed with rear 13 Mpix cam with Sony IMX214 sensor or the selfie 8 Mpix cam, but hardware is of course only one part of the package.
The other one is the software and Bluboo promises some good one coming too. And for the selfie lovers the Bluboo Beautysnap app will be just pure bliss, because you can use the variety of effects and functions like the classic “beautification”, “age and sex recognition” or the “enhance mode” where you can add silly stuff like make-up, glasses or earrings to your portrait. And if that’s not enough beauty for you then you can tweak your face based on some celebrity picture so selfie maniacs have something to look forward to.
Let’s sum up the main specs of the Bluboo Maya Max too, 6-inch JDI display with HD resolution, octa-core MT6750 processor clocked at 1,5 GHz, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB of storage and 4200 mAh battery capacity. The phone is expected to be available in August for an unknown price, but we are expecting sub-$200 one.
waaaaiiiiiiiit, what is good about the software besides selfie features (which I personally really don’t need at all)?
Nothing. They simply expect you to be impressed with their “beautification” feature. Don’t the sample above look exciting to you?
sex recognition ?!
Yea. Male or female. More like “gender recognition”. That would have sounded better.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
The way things are going, with all the new 6″ phones (at multiple price points), this spec sheet better be substantially below $200 (and $10 less isn’t my definition of “substantially’!).
