However, some have questioned the authenticity of the clip. “It’s 100% animation. Stand still and look at the wings of the birds. They look cut with rough edges – no real blurring of movement. The shadows on the floor and buildings are very sharp. The leaves on the trees have no real texture. Everything looks flat. Movement is also not real, ”wrote one.

Another user commented, “This is a fun ride”. “Damn good data speed! Smooth throughout! And an excellent bird’s pov tour of the town.. never dropping the phone either. Now can make that ever-important bird video call for which it prudently took a phone with its camera on and set to video,” commented a user.
