AnonD-451653, 03 Nov 2015How is a larger sensor a low spec?Bigger sensor with the same or higher resolution is improvement.
Bigger sensor with the smaller resolution is just adding one pro and one con at the same tome, so you're pretty much where you were.
Ask HTC how did they do with their huge sensor and 4 "ultra" pixels.

        What on earth are you talking about if you say iPhone 6s has bad or crappy camera. It has great camera, how it even can be bad when it uses sony camera just like all big players in market? The difference is very minor among new cameras and the 6s camera is great just like many other too, or do you really think you can take photos like this with bad camera? https://fstoppers.com/education/new-iphone-fashion-shoot-bikinis-foam-core-and-flashlights-88260

                  Also touchwiz is a lot leaner than it used to be and has a lot of useful features, and most of the hate is unwarranted by ignorant people like you who have never used it.

                  And read this before speaking of cameras again.

                    Anonymous, 04 Nov 2015Samesung have been slapping specs around for years. Why do you think "octa core" rubbish exist... more'Spec junkies' would understand the specs.

                    Octacores had a purpose, especially without having custom cores and hmp, that's why Qualcomm and exynos are going to use quadcores whereas mediatek and huawei are still having to increase core count beyond 4. Its how the big.little set-up works.

                    More ram is always better.

                    Last but not least provide a source for fast charging 'rapidly degrading' the battery, you iPologist.

                        Anonymous, 04 Nov 2015Well I war going to prove them wrong by pointing puerile never really said it was bad because ... moreExactly,in absolute terms its pretty good. But the dxomark paints a pretty vivid picture when it places the iphone 6s behind everything else, when it is closer to the s5 from almost 2 generations ago rather than the s6 from almost 1 generation ago. Nevermind how it will compare with the s7. You can almost guarantee they will put far more effort into the next camera.

I simply stated the fact that the iphones 6s has a crappy camera compared to the competition. To be honest I don't care about the camera and it wouldn't affect my buying decision, that doesn't change that the iPhone 6s' camera is bad.

                          Fanboys these days...

Why do you think "octa core" rubbish exists? Why does the Note 5 need the same amount of RAM as my PC, but still underperforms? Why did they bundle "fast charging" in their latest S6/S6 Edge/S6 Edge Plus/Note 5 phones, even though it rapidly degrades battery quality? To convince the spec sheet junkies!

                                    Still the Omnia HD had a much smaller sensor. And I don't recall it being a much better lense. Though again iso was a big player in that regard.

                                    Definitely. I would imagine at the very least they will keep the F1.9.
                                    Bigger sensor, improved tech, newer lense, improved ois, improved focus system, the improvement to photo diodes, new processor and processing.
                                    Hope this is great.
                                    Just wish it would stay 16 and go above 1/2 inch.

This will definitely aid with gathering light on the sensor so there's still a chance that this will be good in low light. It will be a shame though that, unlike the N8, it won't have a xenon flash to make up for it.

                                        However my 2009 Samsung Omnia HD with 8mp does way better in night mode.

                                        Even with hacks and more custom camera apps there is a huge limit on iso and the larger sensor does not gather as much light as you might assume.
                                        Overall great still
