If I'm paying $900 for a phone, you'd better believe that 4K30 is the barest of bare minimums I'm expecting that rear camera to do unless it's a deliberate tradeoff for something more ethical like a Fairphone. The Pixel 9 base model can shoot at 4K60 and 1080p240 (256 GB and the same $900 price). "Good AI features" lmfao blow it out your ass, Asus. I wonder where this comparison chart is coming from anyway.

My priority would be longevity, ports and an open bootloader.

+ good custom rom support.

My 2022 iPhone SE, that I bought new for about $550, records 4K at 60fps.

I’m a little shocked that isn’t the base standard for all smartphones now.

I don't care about camera quality at all, I much prefer longevity, performancd, ports, other sensors, custom ROM and root support. And so, most smartphones of manufacturers chasing the trend of camera quality, especially if they are 1k+, are not fit for me.

There are Samsung A-Series phones that support 4k @30fps

Galaxy A25 is about $299 and has 6.5 inch 1080p 120hz display, records at 4K @30fps

Galaxy A35 is about $100 more than the above, and along with the above mentioned, also has IP67 water resistance hand under-display fingerprint sensor

Cheap phones are getting so good these days
