That I even have to ask this question about a Nokia phone is just mind blowing and utterly telling about the appalling state of digital privacy in general.

There was a fix released, for anyone with nokia 7 plus, just install latest firmware.
Also since this problem only affected 1 phone out of their line, I believe them it was a screw-up and not intentional.
Does this one also report all your activity to China like the 7+ was exposed doing?[1] That I even have to ask this question about a Nokia phone is just mind blowing and utterly telling about the appalling state of digital privacy in general. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19449824

Some people don't always want to carry around their DSLR. Having a decent back-up with great image quality in their phone that they always have with them is convenient. And not everybody is willing to buy a DSLR, but cares just enough about picture quality that they might get this. Apple and Samsung don't fill their advertising with how great their cameras are just for fun.
A compact camera like Sony RX100 or Ricoh GR II would give you better quality than phones camera yet smaller than a DSLR

Don't want to shill too much for nokia (or HTE), but it was fixed, and since it affected only one phone out of their line up I believe them, it wasn't intentional. Edit: typos
Maybe it wasn’t meant for everyone. This time. But if Nokia let it slip once, I see no reason not to be skeptical of future models.
They lost my trust. Now they’ll have to re-earn it.

I don't have Trypophobia but it does kinda make me feel a little uneasy. Just looks awful to me.

Something like that doesn’t happen by accident though. Someone had to write that code. For some configurations, markets or customers this was intentional behavior .

I bought the Nokia 9 because its faster to get good photos than a regular camera and easier to lug around than a DSLR.
For its price, I'm really happy with the specs and the camera. Only minus is the horrendous fingerprint scanner.
Oh well
