Exactly!

Got it for my 3 year old son and we love it! Pretty awesome to look at his photographs of his toys and whatever else catches his eye.

This is literally the same exact comment on their website tf

I am a professional photographer and I found myself lost in the boxes of the industry’s do’s and dont’s. I wanted a back to basics so so bad that i found some expired film in my father’s fridge and started shooting with them in a second hand “toy” camera. Seeing the grainy green photos was so refreshing, it made me fall in love with photography again. So, if you are like me and you want to save yourself from waiting your films to be developed, but still wanting the same experience of shooting, just buy the damn camera and let the gear gatekeepers hate.

I think that's why I consistently pick up my old Fujifilm x100. It doesn't have low light capabilities, it's fixed lens, it isn't large aperture, and the autofocus is garbage. It pulls me back to basics without forcing me to break out one of my film cameras. I love film, but developing is a process. I usually wait to develop until I have several rolls exposed.

If you want nostalgic pics, better to get an old 2000s digicam with around 5 to 8 mps. If you want high quality in your pocket minus the distractions from your phone, just get any RX100.

great review! looks fun

Loved these photos

Is this the first version or the 1.5 version? Thanks for the review!

def not $40 anymore unfortunately, i placed an order last night for $60 with a discount code i found and your review definitely came in a timely manner! looks like it'll do what i need it to do

Jose, falando dos dumbphones, na sua opinião, qual deles é o melhor atualmente? Estou pensando em comprar o Qin F21 pro 3gb/32gb. Este Xiaomi não é um telefone recente, mas existe algum melhor atualmente? (Eu não gostei do F22 pro) Isso realmente funciona pra diminuir o tempo de tela? Abraços!

Ayyy it’s Denver!

Jose you’re awesome thanks for the videos. I’ve always wondered why you don’t get a kospet watch with camera or a smartwatch and ditch the light phone? You’re thoughts please thank you

@JoseBriones

Never heard of Kospet. I'll check them out. I think the reason why I don't like smartwatches is because their battery life is similar to the LP2 and the actual features are very limited. Take for example public transit, they can't run transit apps without a smartphone around. Or messaging, some services are not available at all. I'd rather have something that doesn't have the ability to run all the apps and services than something that could run them and not do it because of limitations imposed on the OS. Finally, I like e-ink and appreciate its benefits :)

Great video! I would love if you started doing more camera videos. I haven't made the jump to dumb phone bc I want to get a camera and ipod/dap first I would've preferred the same pic twice each with and without flash as well as with and without sunlight/natural lighting but the inside the car night pic and dog pic are incredible! Also say hi and pet your dog for me please

Interesting little camera. A bit disappointed with the picture quality. The Papershoot does a much better job, frankly, although it is definitely more expensive.

How does it compare to paper shoot? Cos I see add for both and some others, seems like the new niche

@JoseBriones

Papershoot is better.

Regarding the shooting experience, does it do that annoying cheap camera thing where there's a pause between pressing the shutter button and taking the picture, or does it take the picture immediately?

If you search for the Light Phone discord, there are samples there from the papershoot. I'd say it is comparable imo. Both are very similar.

I think they should’ve gone with some nostalgic filter. Some Polaroid/film like style ratio. Now it is just some awful compact camera pictures.

Fun idea but the photos look like they were taken with a poor quality webcam from 20 years ago. What they should have done was used an algorithm like one of the iPhone apps that look like film. That would be a great camera.

Not really my cup of tea. I learned when I was a kid and bought a $20 camera with my allowance, better to have a good camera and not need it, than a really poor camera like this for when you really need it. I have never looked at camera specs when I buy a phone, as now I just always carry a little Sony compact camera with me. They sell attractive leather cases (bonded leather sadly). Still some great cheap rugged cameras at the near $100 price point too that are small and simple and have way better basic features. Even a used camera. Honestly something like this is so obsolete that it seems like E-waste.

The problem here is it’s uselessness. You can just buy an old preowned digital camera and get better results, better compactness, useful features, for a fraction of the cost

Seriously, just shoot with your phone and edit with VSCO. This fad is so ridiculous.

These pictures remind me of my old low end Nokia Lumia, that I hd back in 2012, just at a higher resolution. Not that good for 2024

really good idea, terrible execution. Why bother when it looks like the images are from a 2009 flip phone

I'm pretty sure the images will look great in the right hands. It takes time to learn a camera like this. Learn how it catches light and minimum focus lenght etc. The rest is composition. And it’s a camera, a phone is a phone. On a phone the AI does everything for you with this one you take the images. People create amazing images with worse cameras then this. This camera makes you more creative which in the end make you a better photographer. A smartphone make you a lazy photographer

Because a disposable camera and developing the photos costs almost as much as this camera and that is 30 photos once. It took me a month to get the disposable I bought developed. I want to use film, but I have exactly one place in my city that develops film. Drugstores don't have quick turnaround photo development anymore. If this gets me 90% of the way there for significantly less hassle and actually getting photos printed in a timely manner all for a much more sustainable cost over time, why not use it?

What a useless piece of gear. My iPhone takes better photos.
