“For better cameras” like… I don’t see it. Back in the mid 2010s and late 2010s before the bump trend iPhone, Google and Samsung had the best phone cameras, and both were flat and with decent digital zoom and stability (for a phone). If you look at the photo samples for back then and compare it with now the difference is almost imperceptible.

That ugly bump makes big phones even harder to use and weight more now, plus if you’re one of those who never liked using a cover now I bet you’re forced to use one because of the added vulnerability of the bump.

Edit mid 2010s to late 2010s (until the camera bump appears around 2018)

    imperceptible improvement since 2010? there’s even a decent improvement in just 2 years from my pixel 6 to the 8. mid 2010s was iPhone 6 days, and there’s been MASSIVE improvement since then

        what? iPhone 6s was released September 2015, right in the middle of the 2010s. sonfromnehat you’re saying the difference between a pic from a 15pro is nearly imperceptubly better than one from a 6s?

          And why you picked an iPhone that year? Majority would agree that it wasn’t their best camera. Also I’m talking about more about 2016 - 2018.
