I don't. I prefer cell phones which carry out the main function like taking and making calls and sending and receiving messages. There are so many cell phones in the market they at times act like a mini computer. I generally don't like those. Especially the cell phones with camera, I feel it increases overload on the system. The battery discharges faster and the resources of the model are so over utilised that the main function of making and taking calls is hampered.

Up until about 2 years ago, I never had a camera phone, & I went through a lot of phones in about 20 years of having a cell. phone... One of the nextel phone I had did have camera on it & I liked it... Now I have blackberry phone & I love the camera feature on it... I don't carry camera on my vacations anymore...

I think cell phones with cameras are nice and all but there is really no point to them unless you plan on taking a lot of pictures,and you could just as easily get a digital camera to take pictures,I prefer a phone that is simple and does what I need it to do,which is allow me to call people,or allow people to call me which is all a cell phone needs to do,and I do not see why some people think they need a phone that has internet access,plays music,takes pictures,and a bunch of other stuff that they could get by without.

It is fun and convenient to have a camera on the cell phone. Personally I like it. But this does not mean that I approve of the teenagers having it. Things do tend to get out fo hand.

It just so happens that my cellphone comes with camera, but I don't like the quality so I got a camera too. The problem with my camera phone is that you can not zoom, and you can't edit your photos so what you take is what you get. Unless I just haven't figured out a way to do that yet :) But either way I love my camera so much better. Personally I think that it does a better job because that is what it was meant to do. A phone is for phone calls, a camera is for pictures. So you can't be upset with the quality of the pics because you shouldn't expect too much.

Yes, I do like them. What is in them to be disliked? It is a good thing because you cannot and usually don't take your camera with you every where you go but your mobile is a must to take along if you are going anywhere. So, if you get a chance to photograph something you have the mobile and you can do it.
