I completely agree. I got the FP6 with /e/OS like half a year ago and I love everything about it except the camera. I basically stopped taking photos now and borrow my partner’s iPhone for photos instead… 😢
I mean, if showing pictures from your phone on a big screen is something you do so often that your phone absolutely has to do that and do it flawlessly, then yeah, I guess a midrange phone is not for you. But that’s such a specific requirement, I can’t exactly blame a company like Fairphone for not catering to those needs.
What do you use a camera for? If it’s only for scanning QR codes or whatever, fine. But if these are the photos that you take as memories of events in your life, why would you be content with them being grainy and low quality? I suppose it’s a question of what you’re used to.
Right, and so anyone who wants an actual flagship phone should skip Fairphone because they’re not going to like it. I’m glad we agree.
Unless you are an elite mobile gamer, you don’t need a flagship phone.
Even midrange will cover everyone’s needs.
Flagships are nothing but marketing bullshit.
I’ve had some midrange phones for a few days. They’re fine until I take photo and show it on a display that’s larger than a phone screen.
So you want one with a top-ish-of-the-line camera
Yes, I would prefer a midrange phone with a flagship camera over a flagship phone with a midrange camera.
