The selfie camera has gotten TOO good.

But isn't that what we want? Well, yes, to a point, but our front facing cameras, the ones we take all our selfies with, is no longer giving us the soft focus vibe we used to know and love.

In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at whether the selfie camera is changing the way we see ourselves and whether it's really the camera, the phone itself or us that are perceiving the new pictures as worse than the old ones.
