    I know, that trend should be reversed, a1200$ high quality DSLR phone compatible with a major lens standard, with a modular sensor would be a good deal though.

    Let me dream man, not like I can afford it anyways

      Without the lens, the camera still costs a lot of money and a lot of that is due to the sensor and the image processing which comes from that.

        man, i hope you don’t take this seriously, this is just me dreaming about a phone I could never afford.

        make the base model just a high end phone with replaceable camera module, with a normal phone camera it’ll be about an average phone, with camera app designed for photography. another module with a better sensor and dslr lens dock with full compatibility with a major lens standard. it might cost 600, or another 1000 for a high end one.

        I wish we had modularity and innovation instead of endless enshitification

          I’m not taking it as you being hateful against me personally, I’m just being realistic given the market compared to your wants.

          Phone manufacturers have come up with ways to handle depth of field which involve more than one camera, which invalidates a phone with an amazing sensor attached to a lens. The market isn’t going to provide the device you want.

            sorry, I felt like you might be annoyed with me. hard to read tone in just text.

            one big advantage is that phone cameras are so good nowadays because they can leverage the relatively powerful processors for imagine processing, even in a live stream. imagine the image quality of a phone due to software processing + from high quality lens/sensor.

            maybe more of a professional tool. was disappointed when Red tried making a phone and it was just an expensive phone.

            again, I miss innovation,

              Working in an industry that sometimes requires photos to be taken for documentation purposes, cameras that are cameras alone have been abandoned for years. The camera on a phone or tablet is considered good enough, with the most attention recently given to wearable cameras or drones.

              Innovation happened, but not within the existing camera form.
