@kaia @mutebird This is true, but that's also why phones have insanely high MP: It's hard to put 'real' lenses on a phone. My proper camera has 24MP, but i can put a 400mm zoom lens on it and take a picture of things half a mile away. With a phone, that's only possible if you can digitally zoom in far enough, which is only possible with high MP counts.
So overall I'd say it's not all marketing, but it also doesn't make your pictures magically better.
