Topaz Photo 1.5: Still Shit, Just in Different Ways

InDepth Review: Director's Cut

The Director’s Cut


Y
es friends, it’s hard to believe, but it’s been a whole year since I reviewed Topaz Photo AI and discovered an app so flawed I experience traumatic flashbacks to this day. I’ve never uninstalled an app so quickly in my life.

But it’s my job to wade neck-deep through ca-ca so that you legends can make informed purchasing decisions, so I’ve booked a post-review therapy session with a licensed professional and downloaded Topaz Photo version 1.5.

Yes, it’s just plain old Topaz Photo now. They’ve dropped the AI from the name, which is a good start. Now they just need to drop it from the software too.
