What you say is not untrue, but I think the poster above would be fine with no zoom and only moderate camera(s) if there were no bump. I'm certainly in that boat. Unfortunately, as the first surface duo showed, there's basically no market for no-bump low quality cameras on decent phones.

Yeah, but the trouble is that adds thickness in every dimension (as a case needs to wrap round) and weight, which I'd rather not have on a phone already pushing limits of comfort. I have the flip case but never use it because of the above (and because the flipping flap is massively annoying)

Couldn't agree more. I have a fold 3, and it's a great phone, but you can't easily use it as a digital notepad (you know, one of the things it was designed to be) because of the camera bump. The first surface duo got it right but reviewers crucified it because of the camera (and then microsoft shat the bed over keeping development and updates going)
