With nearly all mobile makers now boasting at least 48 MP, does it actually make sense to have 48MP, 64MP, 108MP, or even 200MP main cameras with 3 or 4 extra cameras? The true one-line answer to this eternal question is: MegaPixel count does not really matter. If you go just by that then many old players and newcomers have the biggest MP count in their range, and top of the line specs, but are still a trash phone. Many smartphones camera makers use sensors by either Samsung or Sony. Apart from the top of the line sensors, the specifications are similar and even interchangeable, so some entry level phone models may have some sensors from Sony, and others by Samsung. Now, how can these manufacturers offer increasing MP size in smaller sensors? It is because each individual imaging element (pixel) on the sensor is getting smaller. This does not translate to better picture quality. Think of the shower of photons that leads to getting an image as a rainfall.
