I shoot video professionally and I constantly remind myself to use the superior rear cameras on my phone — whether it’s capture on-camera segments of myself or for vlogging. Most people, though, have been conditioned to settle for a ridiculous compromise by choosing the downgraded front-facing camera instead.
Phone makes have led us to believe that the only real solution to this is to switch to foldable phones, largely because their secondary outer displays make it practical to see yourself while using those better cameras. But what irritates me is that many of the best foldable phones cost a fortune — including recent options like the Motorola Razr Fold.
