On the point of fake bokeh, as a photographer I can't stand it. It looks horribly unnatural and nothing like bokeh from a good lens. Honestly astounding people think it looks good.
If you want a pretty portrait, just buy/borrow a cheap DSLR and the resulting image will be 100x better.
I have a camera with some primes and love those portraits. That said, the fake bokeh keeps getting better. With the iPhone 16 Pro it‘s now good enough that i no longer find it to be an issue.
