That is really impressive. However, it was a bit confusing at first because in the koala example at the top, the zoomed in area is only slightly bigger than the source area. I wonder why they didn't make it 2-3x as big in both axes like they did with the others.

So this is the secret sauce behind Cinematic mode. The fake bokeh insanity has reached its climax!

As well as their "Spatial Scene" mode for lock screen images, which synthesizes a mild parallax effect as you move the phone.

It's available for everyday photos, portraits, everything, not just lock screens.

you can also press the button while viewing a photo in the Photos app to see this.

Why are all their examples of rooms?

Why no landscape or underwater scenes or something in space, etc.?
