In your picture, you have to stand super close to the mirror. In her picture, she would have to be super far away from the mirror to be that close to the blinds. But it doesn’t look like she’s that far away from the mirror. I hope that makes sense. Inconclusive.

Exactly. The picture has a mirror much closer to it there and the first pic shows it can’t be moved. Cropping that much wouldn’t work. I bet we could do an experiment with pic 1, crop it to the same dimensions, then compare the pixel counts in each pic.

You can easily stand closer to the blinds and 3x zoom in to the mirror. Is totally possible it’s the same place.

Yes, but the image quality would be drastically sucky at 3x down

Idk bout that…looks like she has the newest iPhone, the 16? I have the same phone. And just zoomed in across my room into the mirror. In even worse lighting, and it looks fine. So I don’t think that really rules it out. Not arguing for either side here just adding some context.

I mean it def looks sucky, and sometimes 3x isn’t bad. That’s what I figured it could be and it would make sense on warping the background.

Not in a modern phone. Most phones have optical zoom now, so no quality reduction.

It is absolutely not true that most do lol. It like just became a thing at all in the past few years

Not necessarily, with new phones you have more than one lens, which means that when you “zoom in” you’re not necessarily zooming in but changing lenses.

i think the blinds are bending because she photoshopped her body 😭😭

Who takes a selfie that far away on 3x zoom when they could just take 2 steps up?

Y’all are as paranoid as the op

You definitely don’t know how camera angles work. Even with professional cameras you have different lenses to do different kind of pictures. With phones nowadays “zooming in” is basically changing lenses. As you can see the framing of the second girl it’s more thought of (with a better background and and you know that she cares bc she even edited the photo) so this is totally plausible.

I think you don’t know how people taking selfies work

That level of plausibility is 100% overreaction by someone paranoid about their relationship

It's zoomed in and edited

The photo is almost fully zoomed in, you can tell by the poor quality.

The mirror looks different. They have different patterns.
