didn't read the article because it wants me to disable adblock
but wow, the title really triggers me
do normalfriends really do nothing else besides take pictures and videos with their phones?
Why would you want less if you are buying a top of the line phone? Because people sure as hell aren't buying a flagship just for phone calls and texts. Camera has pretty much become the gold standard for comparing phones these days.
I want the effort that would otherwise go into making camera even better to go into making other aspects of phone better.
Figure me out a better battery instead, give me more features that make my phone capable of doing tasks that can currently be done only on computer, stuff like that.
