iPhone 16E are Facetime Calls Possible?

 Can the iPhone 16E make FaceTime calls?


Rarely do I do a brief intro to a product, but I've been reading that the new iPhone 16E is incapable of making FaceTime calls. The general consensus has been that there is only one lens on the rear of the phone. I finally asked ChapGPT and it confirmed the answer I was hoping for.


"When making a FaceTime call on the iPhone 16E, the front-facing (selfie) camera is typically used, allowing you to see the screen and interact with the call. However, you can switch to the rear camera during the call if desired. This functionality is consistent across iPhone models."

So I then went to Apple the website and found this,

A Powerful Camera System to Capture Any Moment

The powerful 2-in-1 camera system on iPhone 16e is perfect for capturing everyday moments and important memories, including in Night mode and Portrait mode. Using computational photography, the 48MP Fusion camera takes super-high-resolution photos, so users can capture gorgeous images that balance light and detail. With an integrated 2x Telephoto, users have the equivalent of two cameras in one, and can zoom in with optical quality to get closer to the subject and easily frame their shot. And the front-facing TrueDepth camera with autofocus enables sharper close-ups and beautiful group selfies. The latest generation of HDR captures subjects and the background with true-to-life renderings of skin tones, while ensuring photos have bright highlights, rich mid-tones, and deep shadows."

So for any of you who have been looking for an answer to this, it appears the iPhone 16E is fully capable. I hope this short AI answer will help you in making the decision to purchase, or at the very least consider it

What is it about adding Wall Art that Makes Your Place so Special

 Clearly it's not just adding any old piece of art


What happened to you the first time you entered a home or a business when you knew the art you were viewing was the real thing? You knew you sensed that it was quality, that is, that it was photographed and printed in a way that distracted you, It hit you. 


So this is what happens when you hang quality Fine Art in your place to others when they enter. They may not say anything on their first visit, but you can be reassured that they will remember.


Light fromBeneath


A fine art print such as this doesn't just hang in limbo. It shouts out its intent and it does so without apologies. And the larger the print, the louder the shout. 

Most homes, apartments and condos today have too much empty wall space. Look around your space. What's left besides doors and windows is just echo space. That emptiness almost creates its own empty white noise and its begging to be adorned with your special choices of exceptional wall art.

I'm sure you'll want to see more of these compelling prints. But when you do so, pick a time when you can reflect upon your surroundings within your home or business rooms. And when it's quiet enough for you to perhaps indulge in the feeling of fullness and inspiration these examples of Fine art bring you, then head to my site, with or without a friend.
