For more creative options in Reno4 Series, AI Color Portrait Video is able to differentiate between the cluttered background and the person in the frame, and highlights the person in color while turning the background into a monochrome black and white. This feature works on both front and rear camera and enables everyone to express their creative side in a trendy way like “The world is black and white, my uniqueness shines with color”. Monochrome Video is made of three kinds of video filters, which adds an effect that resembles a blockbuster video that only retains the red, green or blue colors of objects in the video, while also turning the others black and white. Both features allow you to view the color effects in real-time.
