Lenovo Vibe S1: World’s first smartphone with dual front camera 8MP and 2MP

Lenovo Vibe S1 was one of the new devices introduced by the manufacturer at IFA 2015. If Lenovo Vibe P1 is famous for its huge 5,000mAh battery, Vibe S1 will be proud of being the world’s first smartphone having a dual front camera.

This special set of selfie cams includes a main 8MP and a secondary 2MP shooter on the front surface. More specifically, the former captures the image while the latter adds the depth-of-field effect to the image by blurring the background.

Also according to Lenovo“after taking a selfie with both cameras, there are various options to modify the selfie by selecting from a number of built-in photo editing tools. ‘Blur’ allows refocusing anywhere on the seflie (up to 3 focal plains) or adding a ‘bokeh’ effect to the background to stylize a selfie or simply to get rid of a photo bomber. With ‘Cut Out’, people can be cropped out of a selfie and then placed on any other image, and even on a photo taken with the rear camera of the Vibe S1 smartphone.”
