# Selfie-Enhancing Smartphone Cameras The Vivo V5 Plus Takes Selfies with Perfect Bokeh By Joey Haar | Published 2017-01-23 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-v5-plus References: [cnet](https://www.cnet.com/news/vivo-v5-plus-selfie-obsessives-rejoice-dual-front-facing-camera-phone/) & [vivo](http://www.vivo.com/en/product/V5Plus/index.html) With so many impressively equipped smartphone cameras available, the Vivo V5 Plus uses specialization in order to stand out from the rest of the market. Beyond offering a powerful rear-facing camera and expansive image-editing features, the Vivo V5 Plus comes with a dual front camera that makes it perfect for selfies. One of the biggest benefits of having dual front-facing cameras is the ability to have a variable depth of field. In photography, depth of field refers to the amount of deep space in an image that is in focus. The second camera on the front of the phone allows it to act like a pair of eyes, capturing any image through both cameras and allowing for adjustable focus. This lets users get great bokeh—an effect in which the person is in focus and the background is soft and fuzzy. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Dual Front-facing Cameras:** Opportunity to enhance traditional selfie capabilities by allowing adjustable focus and depth of field. - **Variable Depth of Field:** Opportunity to create professional-looking bokeh effect in selfies, giving users high-quality and visually appealing images. - **Specialized Smartphone Cameras:** Opportunity for smartphone manufacturers to differentiate themselves by focusing on specific camera capabilities, catering to selfie enthusiasts. ### Who This Affects Most - **Mobile Devices:** Opportunity for mobile device manufacturers to incorporate dual front-facing cameras as a standard feature, enhancing selfie-related capabilities. - **Photography & Imaging:** Opportunity to develop innovative image-editing features and software that optimize the variable depth of field functionality in smartphone cameras. - **Social Media & Communication:** Opportunity for social media platforms and communication apps to integrate new photo editing and sharing features specifically designed for selfies with adjustable focus and bokeh effects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Camera-Centric Chinese Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cameracentric-chinese-smartphones.md) - [Oversized Camera Smartphone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-x80-pro.md) - [Studio-Grade Photography Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-s12-and-s12-pro.md) - [Long-Battery Budget Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-v50.md) - [Photography-Focused Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reno6-pro-5g.md) - [Premium Camera-Intact Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xperia-5-v.md) - [Smartphone-Focused Portrait Gallery Activations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portrait-gallery.md) - [Pro-Grade Selfie Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinix-zero-30-5g.md) - [Pro-Grade Photography Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivo-x200-ultra.md)
