This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I mean, that's a technical limitation not an anti-user move. Unless you want a phone that's all camera and no battery or speed.

Do you think that the sensors in flagship phones take up significant space in the phone or are significantly larger than the sensors in smaller or cheaper phones?

I might agree that a smaller phone can't have like FIVE cameras, like some of the flagships, but they can certainly fit the same high-end sensors themselves.

I'm afraid I don't know. Perhaps I assumed wrongly. But having taken apart a couple of phones and knowing how tightly packed everything is, I expect the sensors, lenses, processing chips and whatever else of better cameras would be harder to fit into whether phones. Besides, isn't the high end nowadays often about the postprocessing taking advantage of the multiple cameras?
