This thread isn't about market share, or diversity, it's about YOU whinning because you want an android with a really good camera. Well, why aren't you petitioning nikon, or sony, or a camera manufacturer? The Satio just got released and the Pixon is only available in russia. How on earth are they examples of phones that make or break samsung and sony's "market share"? Leaving a post on a forum that a camera company is likely to never ever read is like complaining to the janitor at Wrigley Field when the bears lose a game: useless.
I'm simply highlighting an issue (the lack of diversity in hardware) that may be slowing androids growth. It's just a topic. And perhaps I am petitioning nikon or sony, how would you know? And yes, I do want an android with a really good camera to be released so that more people buy android phones and hence accelerates the growth of the android platform.

Actually, no, those interested in taking good photos will buy a camera, not a cell phone. That's what I did. A phone that has the capabilities of my Canon PowerShot A590 would be too bulky, cumbersome, and expensive. That's why I invested in a real camera, because I want good pictures. Just like those interested in getting good copies are going to head to kinkos rather than using tracing paper.
I've heard this broken argument a million times. Someone who likes taking good photos would prefer a good camera phone to a phone that takes poor ones. You cannot argue with that.
