Despite we don’t appreciate Physical Flashlights, yet they play a very important role in our lives, especially when you are a part of a Country, where load shedding is a part of everyday experience, you really need a Powerful Flashlight. Sine we keep our mobile phones to our closest distance, OEMs gave us a better option by letting us use the Camera Flash as a flashlight and on Sony Devices they even have a Mod to enhance the brightness level to extreme. Now if we want OEMs to put whole Flashlight thing in Mobiles, then we can pretty much understand how huge the size will be.
However, since we have a Navigator to find Keys and other stuff in Dark, and that navigator is called Mobile Flashlight, the only thing it misses is the awesome intensity, which one can only dream of, however, as I mentioned above, if you own a Sony Xperia Z1 and looking for a way to enhance the Brightness of LED light, we can help you in this matter.
