Choosing the best camera phone of 2024 was easy, but what about the worst camera phone of the year? There are some strong contenders, but only one winner.
OuttaFocus This story is part of Andy Boxall's OuttaFocus series, covering smartphone cameras and photography. Updated less than 0 just now ago Table of Contents I’ve already named my favorite camera phone of 2024, and the crown went to the fantastic Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The versatile Photography Kit makes it really special, and it has even replaced my DSLR several times when taking photos published on Digital Trends.
Related Let’s take the CMF Phone 1 as an example. At the time of writing, it’s on offer for 170 British pounds, or about $215, making it one of the cheapest phones I’ve used in 2024. The phone will have undoubtedly been built to a price point, and the cost of the camera components will have been more important than whether it takes good photos or not. Yet, the camera is decent. No, it’s not feature-packed, but if you just want to take general photos, it won’t disappoint.
It’s almost too obvious to choose the Nokia 3210. No one in their right mind would expect its 2MP fixed-focus camera to take anything but bad photos, and sure enough, it really did take terrible photos. It’s not sold as a camera phone to rival the Google Pixel 9 and instead promises to help you cure your smartphone addiction. One surefire way to do this is with a rubbish camera, so the Nokia 3210 is well on its way to make you never want to pick it up again.
I didn’t use the Moto G 5G 2024, and the camera certainly didn’t impress Digital Trends’ Christine Romero-Chan, but seeing as I didn’t actually use it, it only gets a honorable mention here. Instead, my runner-up is a wild card, as technically, it’s not really a phone. I’m talking about the Rabbit R1.
But it’s not just the picture quality that made the Punkt MC02 the year’s worst — it’s everything around it. The camera app was poorly designed, buggy, and seemingly unfinished, making the act of using it at all quite painful, and you had to pay $750 and potentially a monthly subscription after a year of ownership for the hateful thing.
