Bokeh and Monochrome effects

The Bokeh and Monochrome features will be available in the 3rd quarter of 2018. Software
rollouts are a phased process, so timing and availability varies by market and/or operator.
You can take pictures with the Bokeh and Monochrome effects when using the
dual camera on your device. The Bokeh effect decreases focus in the background
of a photo to emphasise objects at the foreground, for an artistic effect. The
Monochrome effect creates a classic style effect with a smooth gradation between
black and white. The Monochrome effect can be used for both photos and videos.

appears. If this happens, increase the distance between your camera and the object to take
the photo with Bokeh effect. To take close-up photos, change the camera to single mode.
