I am working a lot with the creative possibilites of smartphones (especially concerning music and film), so I find the lightpainting possibility pretty amazing. I actually don’t understand why you can’t do long exposure photos on most other smartphones. For example with iOS 8 apple allowed to manually control exposure on their smart devices – up to half a second. Arghhh! Manual means manual. Give us more time to do crazy stuff! So thank you Huawai to leaving us the creativity
