I wouldn't go that far to call it as a fraud, unless you call literally every phone-with-camera manufacturer these days a fraud. Then I agree as my trusty old nikon fullframe always catches only whats there, including noise and instability that modern phones handle easily.

People were commenting on that thread how apple phone ie mirrored only bunny within bigger picture of a bunny in the grass (thats rather hilarious 'bug'), and we all know how apple consistently removes all moles and wrinkles, changes completely skin tone and overall tonality like every single picture looks like its taken in the golden sunset hour. Ie that nasty samsung is much more truthful when it comes to this, including latest flagships.

That's outright lying too, IMHO much worse - moon is tidally locked so showing exactly same side with same features for millions of years, so they were adding details that are there, just impossible to see on non-stabilized tiny plastic lens&sensor combo in the night.

Making somebody 20 years younger, much prettier and changing their overall look on most important feature we humans have, doing it by default without any real option to turn it off, does a lot of long term body-perception damage in young folks.
