Look at that faux-bokeh effect on the product photos. They're so laughably bad that I'm baffled they included them with the article.

- matsemann 6y agoYes, I was wondering why the left side of the Surface looks completely morphed. Like here https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/00100trPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20200507165409306_COVER.jpg?resize=1536,1152 https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/00100trPOR...
- kapep 6y agoIt looks like the reflection on the black part was identified as further afar and therefor has been blurred.
- ljm 6y agoI wondered if there was something in the reflection they didn't want readers to see, coz it looks like someone just dragged a smear brush all over that side of the picture to hide it. Like they were smudging ink on a canvas.
- Tepix 6y agoYeah, it's ridiculous that they didn't catch it before publishing the article. I don't mind faux bokeh if it works well (it's easy to spot around the hair if you look for it), but it's a complete mess here.
