Apple’s new iPhone 5s, which retailed in select parts of the world last Friday, features a new Slo-Mo mode – the first in any iPhone – allowing it to capture 720p video at 120 frames per second. Slo-Mo also lets users select which parts of the video to play at full speed and quarter speed, giving users a new way of creative freedom in video playback recorded on a smartphone.
And, by the looks of it, there has been plenty of videos uploaded on to YouTube showing this new feature in various genres. From humorous slow-mo capture of slapping someone’s face to cars driving off in slow motion, here are some of the best Slo-Mo videos found on YouTube.
Many of these Slo-Mo videos actually appeared on the day the iPhone 5s was launched. Some, such as the “couch jump” below, are fairly simple:
Others are more elaborate and definitely showcases the feature in better light. For example, this cool slow motion capture of a sports car:
