Back in the days "you had to take a camera with you" in order to make decent photos (decent as in "decent enough" for most people).
That started to change in 2014 where at least the high end models started to have "good" cameras. Today even the mid-spec smartphones are there and a improved cameras is a mission statement for every new smartphone generation. So the issue is .. you have your "camera" with you all the time now anyway. Why bother with a dedicated one.
Let's face it - smartphone cameras are about as good as conventional digicams 3-4 years ago.
I'm still waiting for a smartphone for camera enthusiasts. The Panasonic CM-1 was almost there but now the real McCoy please.
