β€œUnfortunately, that similarity extends to the webcam, which is still 720p resolution and still terrible. Apple has tried to borrow some of its real-time image processing from the β€ŒiPhoneβ€Œ to try to spruce up the image β€” and I do find that it does a better job evenly lighting my face β€” but mostly what I notice is that it looks bad (only now it’s a more processed version of bad).” - The Verge

Here is a real comparison. It’s less crappy but it is not good.

Take that, Apple. It was a near perfect moment.
