Trust the internet to add new angles to many such ongoing debates. The latest one revolves around Rihanna¡¯s much-talked about performance at India¡¯s richest man Mukesh Ambani¡¯s son Anant Ambani and soon-to-be daughter-in-law Radhika Merchant¡¯s pre wedding festivities.
While everyone has been going gaga over the details of the three-day gala being held at Ambani¡¯s hometown Jamnagar, Gujarat, an X user came out with an interesting observation.
A clear zoomed video of Rihanna performing on the stage surfaced online and went viral. Soon, this started a debate around which device was used to record such a good quality video - Samsung or Apple.
A page by the name of FentyStats posted this clip on X. In the video, Rihanna can be seen performing her hit song ¡®All Of The Lights¡¯.

The video footage was initially zoomed in from a considerable distance, and the subsequent zoom-out generated a flurry of activity on the microblogging site.
The prevailing sentiment among users was that the phone used to record the video appeared to be a Samsung device. One user expressed, "These are the type of ads Samsung needs to be doing." Another user shared, "When I got my Samsung, it had me zooming into everything for like a week. It's still useful when there is something in the distance you can't make out."
Contrary to the initial assumptions, a reader's note beneath the post indicated that the clip was actually recorded using an iPhone 13 Pro Max. This information was later confirmed by the original uploader of the footage, a man named Joh Masse.
Masse shared the same video on his Instagram account as well. ¡°I took the video with an iPhone,¡± he wrote, retweeting the post.
This Bit Of News Left Many In Disbelief
While it¡¯s a general observation that Iphones don¡¯t have a great zoom feature, one user wondered out loud and said, ¡°Since when did iPhones have that kind of zoom? Be real with us man¡±.
To which Masse replied, ¡°It¡¯s the wide angle.¡±
X Users Demanded To See Joh Masse¡¯s Pre-wedding Festivities Invite
Following Rihanna's debut performance in India, some individuals even requested to see Masse's invitation to the Ambani event as evidence. A user commented, "The bigger flex is you were at the wedding," while another wrote, "Show us your wedding invitation."
Despite Masse's clarification about using an iPhone for the footage, there were still some skeptics who expressed disbelief, with one person stating, "We don¡¯t believe you. Sincerely, everyone."
¡°It¡¯s okay. Just admit you bought a Samsung,¡± a user added.
Rihanna's exclusive concert in Jamnagar for the Ambani event was a massive success. The pop sensation captivated the high-profile attendees, which included Ivanka Trump, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Not just her performance, many praised the singer for her humility and the fact that she happily posed with the paps and the airport security instead of throwing tantrums.
