It's not about going for pro looking photos... i bet a lot of people don't even switch off of 12mp on their phones to make use of 50mp or 200mp.That's my thinking. The time I go to a professional photo shoot and they walk in with a phone for the camera I'll be leaving immediately. These are phones, the camera is just a bonus, stop expecting professional pictures from a "phone"
It's about having a wider range of shots available.
I can't put my chip on my Fold 7 to make it my daily yet so rocking the S23U but looking forward to playing with it. But just this past weekend I had a scenario that is one of my only concerns with the Fold... I was attending my daughters white coat ceremony this past weekend in Auburn and in the upper floors and using the S23U to be able to go from 1 to 10x and even 30x with Samsung super processing in low light was great. I don't need 50x or 100x. But would have been nice to 10x. Outdoor pics too where I am visiting the campus and having that variety.
I think these two were at 3x and 10x.
On my S23U and S22U, I've used 3x and 10x a lot on a variety of shots for a variety of events. When I show friends at the same events how i am capturing these zoomed pics with such clarity over their iPhone Pros they are hating their phones in those cases.
For a $2000 phone... the 200mp main is nice... but for $2000 I'd want a little more zoom. Maybe they will come out with a ZF8 Ultra with 10x-30x zoom for $2500 next year

But I am looking forward to playing with it more as my daily.
