    Yeah, cameras are not usually comparable to high end stuff, but they are good enough for me. For my use case camera is just and after-thought. A good convenience to have at hand, but not a necessary one, especially not necessary to have 6 of the damn thing.

      I miss the Nexus series because it kinda had the best of all worlds, but I’m in your camp where the camera is basically an afterthought.

      I took more pictures of like…wiring inside a wall than anything in the last couple of years. Some of that is probably related to the cameras on my phones being underwhelming, but also I just haven’t been that interested in photography overall as I’m aging. I’d rather just live the experience rather than taking pictures or videos of it.

        Well, product design these days is all about chasing numbers. More speed, more memory, more refresh rate, more cameras, more pixels, etc. Am kind of saddened by the fact they stopped really paying attention to what humans need and ergonomics and are too busy chasing each other around for bigger numbers. I would have killed for qwerty keyboard on my phone or a smaller form factor. Keep the resolution up just make the damn thing smaller. With trackball for example we wouldn’t need everything to be finger sized anyway.
