Why are we crazy about smartphone cameras?

Take a look at the tweet below from Steve Litchfield.

Was this snapped on a Lumia 950, a Samsung Galaxy S7, an iPhone SE, LG G5 or HTC 10 or something just as good. NO. It was taken on a cheap and nasty smartphone that has no emphasis on the camera. It also comes with a processor so weedy its too embarrassing to mention it. The Marshall London is all about the world’s loudest smartphone speakers and the headphone audio.

But take a look at the photo. Once shared on social media where most shots end up, should we really be obsessing over the photo quality?

Food for thought.
