So, what do ya'll think....just to let everyone know I have no clue about anything when it comes to Photography...I just updated my phone and when I went to take a picture I saw a new button that said HDR off so I turned it on.

That doesn't look like hdr at all

A bright sunny day is a bad way to test the HDR. Wait until the hour before sunset and find a good shot that has a high dynamic range. You'll be able to get a good before and after with that.

The HDR algorithm on the iPhone is really good for situations where you have bright sunlight streaming in a window in a somewhat dark room, or other, similar situations. It's not really about creating the overdone, cartoony HDR creations that we sometimes see.

Yeah I really have no clue, it did change the picture a little bit though...

^ Exactly, or if you get up early enough catch it right before a full sunrise. You need a wide range of light and shade with a little of everything in between if you want it to look right. As far as the HDR ability of the Iphone... I haven't tried it but it can only do so much for you, I don't think you will ever get that full HDR look unless you just use a DSLR camera and take your own exposures.

Looks good but I don't see much difference lol

Looks to me like it actually has less range in the "after" photo..

The "HDR" photo which is the second one shows alot more detail...especially on the WRX its self...either way it's not a bad little camera for a cell phone! I don't even carry my digital camera or my HD videocamera anywhere anymore...
