It wasn't just the MP count that was insane, it was the sensor size. Iirc, the sensor was bigger than most point and shoot cameras back in the day. It also had a physical shutter cover, xenon (not LED) flash, and (like many Lumias) a dedicated two-stage shutter button on the side. For non-camera people, that meant you could half press the shutter to focus and then full press to take the shot... Just like on a real camera.

I owned the Zune 30, Zune 8, Zune HD, and used Windows Mobile 6.0, Windows 7, and Windows 7.5 Mango. I switched to iPhone after my Windows 7 phone was water-damaged in 2012, just to try something new. Surprisingly, I didn't expect those platforms to vanish! Even the introduction of Windows 10, with its innovative feature of docking your phone to use it as a desktop, was fascinating. Back then, I couldn't afford to switch phones often, so I missed out. As a software developer who creates iOS and Android apps, I understand why these platforms lost developer support. Yet, I genuinely miss the MetroUI of Zune and Windows Phone. If they were still around, I'd switch back in a heartbeat to escape the constant distractions on current smartphones.
