“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)
I haven’t had a chance to watch the video yet, but I will when I can, thanks for the recommendation!
From personal experience, my 2 year old Phone 14 only competes with my 6 year old a6400 in perfect light when it comes to noise and sharpness. Indoors it’s not even close.
Haven’t watched this particular video, but we watched the iPhone 14 one when my wife was shopping for a new phone a year ago.
He only does landscapes, so he won’t answer the question for indoor lighting.
And I guess I can walk my claim back a bit. I’m just a bit frustrated since I had a hard time finding a purpose built camera that could match an iPhone while being remotely pocketable.
Ricoh does alright for my purposes.
