And take sweet pictures. That alone is worth upgrades for a lot of people. Though we are pretty fast approaching a ceiling on what is actually visible to the human eye in terms of improvements. I bet we will start to see diminishing returns in camera tech in the next few years.

Recent iPhones have arguably become worse with all the AI processing they are applying to photos.

We already do see diminishing returns. The lenses on a phone like the iphone 14 pro show pretty bad lens flair in certain lighting situations. I've compared it side by side between a friends 14 pro and my SE2 and I just don't get these effects with my much simpler lens. I suppose the solution is some sort of a hood or more elements for that big lens on the 14 (the way a larger camera would solve these issues), but its already large enough where the phone no longer sits flat on a table even with a case. Some threads showing the double imaged effect which is especially pronounced with neon signs: https://old.reddit.com/r/iPhoneography/comments/yhsy8s/iphone_14_pro_edited_with_vsco/ https://old.reddit.com/r/iPhoneography/comments/yhsy8s/iphon... https://old.reddit.com/r/applehelp/comments/zu7jmj/iphone_14_pro_photos_with_neon_lights/ https://old.reddit.com/r/applehelp/comments/zu7jmj/iphone_14... Apparently this has been going on since at least the iphone 12 and 13: https://old.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/q06u1y/insane_lens_flares_as_of_a_week_ago_any_fix/ https://old.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/q06u1y/insane_lens_...
