I feel a lot of the photography enthusiasts out there are starting to miss some really exciting mobile cameras. Also, we only ever seem to have these kinds of “worth it” concerns after an Android launch… Never after an iPhone launch…

      I didn’t watch it but Kagi universal summarizer says:

      • The podcast hosts are knowledgeable about photography and cameras, but sometimes get sidetracked in their discussions and miss important details.
      • New smartphone features like AI photo editing need to be properly explained and evaluated, not just dismissed, as the technology is still evolving.
      • Hardware changes alone may not warrant an annual new smartphone model release. Software improvements need to provide clear value.
      • There is a lack of representation of the full Android ecosystem in discussions, which is more diverse than just Samsung and Google phones.
      • Certain Android phones are pushing the boundaries of mobile photography further than what is available in North America.
      • Exposure and frame rate stability are important factors for video that deserve more consideration.
      • Collecting one’s own user data is important for AI development rather than relying solely on cloud solutions.
      • Copyright and data ownership need better legal frameworks as AI develops.
      • The podcast could benefit from having more knowledgeable Android users participate in discussions.
      • While criticism is valid, it is best delivered respectfully and constructively rather than dismissively.

        Fwiw I am not paying $800 for software improvements that are artificially withheld from the hardware I own. I used to upgrade annually, but I’m still rocking a p6pro and not feeling any pain points yet. Eventually my battery will start degrading below lasting a day but hasn’t happened yet.
