@pan I abandoned my PinePhone as a daily driver because of the poor camera functionality (a major use case for a phone, for me, is to take ad-hoc photos and videos of my children).

Do you happen to know what is meant by "working" here? Like ... on the spectrum from "can take focused stills in good lighting, that can be post-processed to look nice" to "fully functional HD video in poor lighting"?

@duncan_bayne that is difficult to answer, you can scan qrs, take some photos (without expecting perfect quality), but there is no focus actuator yet and no color correction, so photos could look a little off, the work is being done and the bits getting in place, hopefully those won't be problems anytime soon :D
