Photo editing, yeah, nice, but do you buy a phone because of it?

People often pick their phones largely on the camera quality, so I have no reason to doubt many would consider this in their purchase decision, yes.

    Consider it, but not buying a new phone because of it.

    Do you think, someone would pay an extra 50€ just for slightly better editing capabilities all else being equal?

    People pay hundreds more for better/more cameras so yes. I also imagine it the AI integration would not be so singular as just photo editing.

    Photo/video capture is one of the single largest uses of smart phones. People spend a LOT of time editing their images too.
