  • Unusable if the app freezes right when you are ready to shoot

    Just got done with a swim meet. Missed multiple starts as the app froze as soon as I tried to focus. Had to quickly yank the camera and go back to my iPhone camera as fast as possible. This thing is great in theory. In practice, I think I just wasted $700. Come on, developers. Fix this thing and I'll gladly revise my review.
    Update: so the new version appears more stable. Will need a bit of time to test it in a more demanding environment. Raising my rating.
    2nd update: took the DXO on a family ski trip. Still freezes ALL THE TIME. Totally unstable. Still feeling the pain

  • Freezes resolved

    I thought the app was freezing and needed a restart every time it comes out of sleep mode (iPhone 6+). Instead it's a quirky non-intuitive process to wake the DXO One. If it's in power saving mode (Zzz on display) tap iPhone screen or half-press shutter button to wake. If it's in sleep mode (lens open, display blank) slide lens cover closed, count to 3, and slide it open again. In both cases it is rediscovered by the app and ready to shoot. This info changed my review from 1 to 4 stars.

  • Edited review: perfect camera !

    Fixed freezing issue with the 1.2.1 update. Amazing quality camera perfect for street photography as I don't need to lug my SLR around.
  • Nice looking app... But crashes too often

    App is aesthetically pleasing - but functionally problematic. Every time I have gone to take photos with the DXO camera, I need to close down and start the app 3-4 times before it works. If this issue can be stabilised and fixed, the app will be stellar.
  • Excellent

    Excellent app layout and functionality: simple, intuitive and clean. The app compliments the hardware perfectly ... Wish all camera apps were like this.
  • A great start

    A nicely laid out app, I do find the app hangs on numerous occasions and a disconnect and relaunch is required to get it working again but I'm sure they will iron this niggle out shortly.

    I've just received a Lubecube which I had hoped I could use with the app but unfortunately not. I'm hoping DXO and Lumecube could do a bit collaboration - now that would be a great combo.

  • App freezes half the time

    First off, when this works, it works well. The problem is that the app freezes almost half the time the camera is connected. The only way to fix it is to do some combination of force quitting the app, unplugging the DxO One, or (in one case) hard resetting the DxO one with a paperclip. The app also doesn’t auto-launch unless you’re not already in another app- though that may be an iOS limitation. If they can fix the stability issues, the this will be a winner.

  • Love It!

    I own the DxO One and absolutely love it! I knew what I was looking for and this camera delivered. I wanted the most compact form factor I could get while still having the ability to shoot RAW. Since I always have my iPhone with me, carrying the DxO One is the smallest RAW camera I could carry. The IQ of the photos is very impressive. It definitely gives me better photos than my iPhone (which is no slouch), but the iPhone can’t compete because of sensor size and lens. This new update shows that DxO Labs can add new features through software updates that actually really provide some new features rather than just bug fixes.
    As with anything, nothing is perfect. For example, there is no optical zoom. Need to physically move closer or farther from your subject.
    But all in all, for what I was looking for, especially the ability to shoot in RAW, tiny form factor, and superb IQ (image quality), combined with an iPhone that provides a big view finder and the ability to instantly share your photos just like any on your iPhone make this product well worth my investment in it.

  • Amazing camera, amazing app

    The DxO One camera truly changes the way I take photos with my iPhone. Say goodbye to noisy blurry nighttime photos and portraits with everything in focus. Say hello to amazing resolution, low light performance, and beautiful portrait bokeh.

    The associated app works like a camera should. Not an iPhone camera but a real Dslr or compact style camera. Plus with the beauty of being always connected and app and feature updates. A true marriage of the best of mobile iphoneography and of a Dslr camera.
