    Is Dolby Atmos & DTS-X the last format consumers will support?

    Yes, but more. :) Everyone with a smartphone is benefiting from computational photography and getting vacation and birthday snapshots far better than they could a few years before. Good sensors plus lots of computer algorithms are doing things on photographs that were a few years ago the domain...
