You can clearly see a qualitative difference between good and bad cameras even onf facebook-sized photos.

My theory is Google etc. focus on cameras so much because reviewers are media people that take a lot of videos and photos… if you want a good review you ship a good camera.
Meanwhile all I want to see as an ordinary user is battery life, size and weight. If I take a photo it’s going on facebook (Well, more like mastodon these days) and any camera phone made in the last 10 years is fine.

Sure, but for the vast majority of people the difference is completely irrelevant. 4k to 8k doesn’t matter, we’re already in HD.

It’s not about the resolution which as you mention is already more than sufficient. But you can easily see bad optics, bad color rendition, oversharpening etc. on a 500px image.

I feel you. I went for a pixel 7 so that I can use GrapheneOS, but this thing is a hefty-chonker, and if i am bored at work, the battery will barely make it through the day. My former CCP-branded phone was much lighter and would easily last 2 days with one charge when new.
