It was a hidden (not too well) way to bash the President and nothing to do really with the stupid little camera.

FWIW, I am no admirer of the current POTUS, but I think his policy toward Huawei is spot on. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Why do people keep asking this stupid idiotic question CELL PHONES ARE PHONES THEY WILL NEVER REPLACE A SERIOUS PROFESSIONAL CAMERA PERIOD , Just see how fast you get kicked off a wedding shoot if you show up at a wedding with 2 cell phones and an iPad no one is going to pay you $ 5,000.00 for a wedding I don't care what cell phones do now or in the future , they will never replace any Canon , Nikon , Pentax , Fugi , Sony Camera Pros will always buy the best current Pro Camera their work is too important to not have proper tools those that think otherwise are amateurs as cell phones advance so do the serious cameras outpacing any thing a cellphone can do . If don't realise that you don't own a serious camera and the can't come close to image output . Not just size prints and quality and noise . Wake up as far as mirrorless that won't replace it either until they make a current Pro camera and stick mirrorless tech in it with all the bells and whistles we now enjoy without everything buried in menus. Take a Nikon D850 make it mirrorless inside and leave everything else alone and I would buy it , I would even buy it if it had Canon on it ....p.s. Dirty diaper shooting will never replace an eyepiece on a camera ....

Pay no never mind, folks.
The OP saying that the cell phone will replace all cameras is like the "car expert" who says that an SUV will replace all cars.
To engage the OP on this level is to argue a Kia against a Masarati. Not too fruitful, if you ask me.

I don't see anything political or offensive about the post. The reference to Trump is accurate and not derogatory.

We still have some of the things you listed but some are damn expensive now.
Phillips Audio Compact Cassettes of type IV for example cost an arm and a leg on Ebay.
Reel to Reel recorders are worth a lot of money now.
Many other stuff in the list are worthless.
Now if the DSLR is going that way then should I stock up and keep them in pristine condition for resell or they are going to be worthless?

Just another President hater lie like you've been doing for over 2 years now.
We don't fall for that crap anymore.

I've made exactly zero political comments unless there is something I totally misunderstand. Personally, I'm strictly here for the photographic content! The fact that Trump is currently taking a serious look at this company is likely very appropriate although I haven't followed the news closely enough to know for sure.

The popularity of cell phones and their ability to take good to very good pictures suits those who use and share their photos. They don't care about prfessional cameras DSLR or Mirrorless. To them and those who buy and use cell phones, the "pro" cameras are a so what.

It is a smartphone so it relies on cell towers and a limited battery. Seeing as I like to go ‘where no person has gone before’, I doubt a cell phone will take over the DSLR market. On my last trip, I was out of range for 3 weeks. Not a cell tower/phone in sight.

As soon as a cell phone camera can capture this I'll get rid of the 10lbs. of DSLR equipment that did it from 150 ft. away.
It is a very nice picture. How wide is the audience? Like most pictures,cell or otherwise, you don't spend a lot of time thinking about it. The picture taken by cell phone has a greater audience.
