I used my iPhone as a webcam
Updated on
Apple quietly made the iPhone double as a wireless webcam... and it's awesome. The GIF above shows how sharp it looks compared to a DSLR. With modes like Center Stage, Portrait, and Studio Lighting, Apple took a boring problem (bad laptop webcams) and turned it into a slick product moment.
The marketing magic
This image nails how Apple sells experiences, not specs. The phone perches elegantly on a stand—clean, functional, premium. You instantly imagine yourself looking like a YouTuber on your next Zoom call.
Why it works
- Clear value: “Looks better than a DSLR” = instant upgrade
- Visual proof: No jargon, just a great-looking video
- Convenience factor: Totally wireless setup
- Design harmony: iPhone + Apple stand = cohesive story
Real-world echoes
- GoPro: sells adventures, not cameras
- Dyson: sells cleaner air, not vacuums
- Peloton: sells community, not bikes
- Adobe: sells creativity, not software
