    Yes, decent, as in just ok. I want more battery. If I want amazing photos, i would buy a camera.

      I shopped around for a camera, my only requirements were pocket size (easy) and open-point-shoot quickly, like in a couple of seconds (impossible).

      I double tap my volume button and take a photo in 1-2 seconds with my phone, Leika lense stuff (not obnoxiously potruding), way enough for me.

      Would love a really small fast camera though, but waiting 15-20 seconds for it all to whirr together takes like the fun out of it for me.

      Yeah agreed. I honestly don’t take enough pictures to care about the camera. I do occasionally play games on my phone so I get stuck with the bump because those are the ones that can play games. I too wish for larger battery.

      But the reason they insist on going with the bumps is because people expect the phone to take a decent photo. They can probably make one without the bump but it is unlikely that most people would buy it (or be happy with it).

        I mean, if the entire phone was made the same thickness as the camera bump, that would give more room for a larger battery and more powerful components, and frankly, it would still be a pretty thin phone, and easier to handle (oh, and they could put the fingerprint scanner back on the back where it’s convenient and reliable)

      People don’t want to lug a camera all over the place just in case they want a good photo, they want to be able to make a decent photo with the small brick that they always have with them anyway

      And I am one of them. While I might not care too much about the highest quality pictures, I would still appreciate better ones if possible
