The main reason I stay on the flagship (in this case 11 Pro) is all down to the camera. I spend all that money on a new phone each each just for the camera upgrade. This got me sitting down and thinking about how I could stop this cycle, maybe I need to change the way I think about the camera. As good as it is it still won’t beat a dedicated camera in my opinion.
\n\nMaybe I go for a compact great camera and a phone where I’ll be happy unlocking and using but can still take those shots to remember a moment.
\n\nAs with a lot of things in my life (and something I wish I didn’t do) I’m probably overthinking and will torture myself with the choices, overanalysing everything.
\n\nBut, I’m thinking I may change my setup.
\n\nSell the 11 Pro.\nGet an iPhone SE 2020 or Google Pixel 4a.\nGet a Sony RX100.
\n\nThis way I have a great little camera plus a phone with a good enough camera to catch those unplanned events.
\n\nAnyone else use this method or can recommend a small great camera?
