    just google camera as standard and invest and give better camera sensor(hardware) and all things are fine. 4k 60 fps at front and rear camera, improve video performance!!!

    video performance isn’t the big priority, almost everyone takes a selfie . We do sometimes take a video, however .. how many videos does an average person take compared to pictures.
