Well, most of the latest iPhone models do have the portrait mode but some perform better than the others. Suppose you are having an iPhone XR, and your friend is having the latest iPhone 12 Pro. You can take stunning portrait photos using the latter and then AirDrop to your iPhone later. But can you edit those portraits right on your iPhone, by adjusting the background blur and portrait light?
Let us see how to share portrait photos from iPhone with blur and lighting data so that you can edit the same portrait photos using another iPhone.

In case you are unaware, this is a way you can take portrait photos on the latest iPhone model you saw in Apple Store and share them with your iPhone so that you can edit them later right from your iPhone.
