Lenovo announced today the launch of the VIBE Shot smartphone in the Philippines.
The Lenovo VIBE Shot is a fine piece of gadget utilizing premium materials – a full aluminum outer frame plus front and back Corning Gorilla glass. However, it is more than a stylish phone.
Hit the VIBE Shot’s dedicated shutter button and snap the perfect shot with its 16MP main camera in an instant. Its on-board infrared auto-focusing (AF) system is twice as fat as a conventional autofocus*, while the tri-color LED flash promises to capture more realistic skin tones – a world’s first for smartphones.
No need to worry about taking photos in low-light situations or at night as the phone’s 16:9 BSI sensor delivers a superior performance and clarity for shooting images. Should you accidentally move or shake the camera, optical image stabilization (OIS) tech ensures reduced blurring.
More and more smartphones enables you to maximize its camera features, catering to all levels of photographers. A highlight of the VIBE Shot’s Auto Mode is its Smart Composition function that incorporates automatic scene detection and an onscreen “point & shoot” guidance. On the other hand, going PRO (which you can see below) gives you limitless compositions by manually setting aperture, shutter speed and ISO settings.
Having problems taking a groufie? VIBE Shot introduces another world’s first – the panoramic selfie feature. It lets you take three selfies on its 8MP front-facing camera and stitch them up into one that includes more people.
