The only thing they say about the camera is megapixel count for the single front and single rear camera. This is a very clear sign that the camera is an afterthought tacked onto the phone. I have zero faith in its hardware or software.

I'm in a weird position where I definitely care enough about phone cameras that I make most of my phone purchasing positions based on the camera, but I also don't care so much about photography that I'd be willing to carry around a traditional bulky camera. I travel and hike a lot, and enjoy trying to take nice photos of beautiful things, so it's very important to me that the phone does a good job at that without encumbering me.

Maybe for my next device I'll end up just switching to a Linux phone and then carrying around an iPhone or Android just for the camera and 2FA / banking apps.
