Phone cameras were the only technology I really followed the progress of and even that has stagnated. Phone cameras consistently got better with every model for a decade to where they are now comparable with real cameras.

I got the S23 Ultra for its 10x zoom camera which was genuinely really cool and I have taken over a hundred professional-looking photos with it. Naturally with following releases they dropped it to a 5x camera with "Ai-pOWeReD 10x zoom" (it looks like shit) while raising the phone price. Meanwhile the main cameras on all phones have remained basically unchanged since 2020. Since realizing these companies have actually given up I just downgraded to a smaller phone and got a real camera.
