and support for Dolby Vision HDR video shooting can be said to be the brainchild of this conference. Apple has demonstrated its technical skills to the outside world through its hard power, and used a mobile phone to complete many operations that cannot be done by cameras. Perhaps it is also a means to effectively counteract the market's "bad" camera aspect. But in any case, the realization of this feature on mobile phones is indeed very shocking.
