It doesn't have zoom or autofocus, and it can take 2MP photos only, but the Apple iPhone is still the top dog of cameraphones at Flickr. Months after reaching the top of the heap at Yahoo!'s popular photo site, the iPhone continues to be the most popular camera, beating out Nokia's number-two N95, which, according to the graph, which seems to have plateaued in recent months.
According to the Flickr iPhone page, some 19,674 items were uploaded from 3,138 iPhone users just yesterday.

The feature creatures in the tech media got it wrong: 2 mp is plenty, and then some, *for a phone*; and most other phones (Samsung apart) only have digital zooming (which is hardly worth having).

This chart makes no sense to me, and I'm the cell phone analyst. None of the other three phones are sold by any US carrier; you can only get them through third party channels. I would say the iPhone has outsold those other phones in the US by 10 or more to 1, each. Is there a chart that compares the iPhone to other phones that people in the US actually own many of? Or is it just that the iPhone is the only popular US phone with whatever Flickr client they use to make the chart?

What do I think? I think that the hardware is not as important as the software. N95 has a lot better hardware, but it is a lot difficult to use compared with the iPhone, I just dropped the N95 for the iPhone and even that Nokia has improve a lot since the older model, it took me a lot less time to learn all the functions in the iPhone that the time it took me just to learn the basic functions of the N95 (configurations). But I am just a regular user, some one can find easier other phones.
