One UI 4.1 Live Focus:

- Blur: It blurs the background around the subject.
- Large circle: Draw a centered circle around your subject while severely blurring the background.
- ColorPoint: Directly changes the sharpness of the colors around your subject, making everything else black and white.
- Zoom: Creates an effect that makes you appear to be moving at high speed towards the subject.
