The Camera app on the Essential Phone has just got better with the latest update. Essential rolled out an update that brings a slew of improvements in the Camera app and a brand new feature. The update brings that much-accoladed Portrait Mode for the app. This feature has been one of the most requested ones, and it is great to see that the makers have granted the wish.

In addition to the Portrait Mode, users will also find significant improvements in the existing camera app modes. The update brings JPEG compression for all the standard modes that is expected to boost image quality. Especially for the Portrait Mode, the overall compression has been reduced regardless of the size. Well, Essential is not the only company bringing tweaks to the Portrait Mode in the camera app this year. Even the latest iPhone lineup has also brought the new portrait mode with a black background that comes into action automatically.
