You’re comparing cameras against different product segments. Laptop cameras are significantly smaller in all dimensions than phone cameras. Most laptop cameras are 1-4MP. Most are 720p (1MP), and a few are 1080p (2MP). The previous MacBook was 1080p For reference, a 4k image is 8MP. 12MP is absolutely a massive resolution bump, and I’d challenge you to find a competitive alternate in a laptop.
