With the Dual-video mode, users will now be able to capture two videos on the main camera and the zoom camera simultaneously. It will allow users to capture detailed videos.

The other addition is the AR Measure app. This feature allows the Time of Flight 3D camera to capture the details of the object in the frame. These details include the length, volume or height of a person or object. This feature also works in the case of multiple people or objects in one frame.
