Weekly poll results: the rear camera is all that counts, front cams get little love

Last weeks poll produced one of the most definitive answers weve had in a while rear cameras are more important then selfie cameras, the vote was nearly 10:1 in their favor.

However, we went through the comments to get a feel for how people use their phones and found that the world is not ready for a world without front-facing cameras.

Some use them for video calls not shooting video, just video calls. Others like the option of face unlock. And, yes, some people do take selfies, but by the sound of it, they wouldnt be too mad if there was a way to just use the rear camera for that.

Going back to videos, it seems that Samsung had it mostly right the Galaxy A80 is optimized for selfie videos, thanks to the pop-up and rotate mechanism that turns the rear camera to face forward.

But while the ability to shoot 48MP selfies is one of a kind, it doesnt make much of a difference. The A80s real strength is high-quality 4K video coupled with competent stabilization (the real time bokeh might prove to be a boon too).

So, it looks like phones with high resolution selfie cameras focused on the wrong thing video should be the priority instead. Yet, its not uncommon to see a 32MP selfie cam with no autofocus, which is vital if you ever want to use the camera in any position that isnt at arms length.
