Let’s learn more about the feature:
What is a ‘Slofie’?
A brand new feature in the iPhone 11 models that enables the 12MP TrueDepth front camera to record videos at 120 frames per second. When these frames are slowed down, you get a crisp slow-motion selfie. When the feature was announced during the Apple event on September 10, it was pronounced as a ‘slofie.’ Notably, Apple soon realized the potential of this new feature and applied for a US trademark on September 13. In the document, Apple defines slofie as “downloadable computer software for use in capturing and recording video.” This implies that Apple does not want any other company to come up with slofie-branded camera apps; ensuring that slofies remain exclusive to the new iPhones.
