So, who is this Slofia? Err Slofie.
The Gen Zers’ trendsetter, and Apple CEO Tim Cook took the stage today to announce 3 shiny new iPhones. The iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. The Pro versions come with 3 cameras at the back while iPhone 11 has 2 cameras. On the front side though, the cameras are same. And they are capable of taking slofies. Now, what the hell is a “slofie”?
Why selfie when you can slofie?
You know why, Apple. #NoFilter
So basically, Slofie is a slo-mo Selfie video.
Roger that. Cool name, Apple.
Now, apart from this rather not-so-catchy-newly-coined-name, this is actually a great feature. Recording 4k videos with front camera can be useful. So is the slofie. I know, Android has had this feature for yeeeeearrrrs. Yup, I know! But it doesn’t get cooler than that.
