I only use it as my main music player. I still use my Cybershot as my main camera, and I guess It'll be forever

Main camera. As an owner of a P990i which I am hoping to sell I simply can't carry a camera with me every where or have it with me at the right times all the time.
I also don't have pocket space for a P990 and a camera

I use my phone as a dedicated MP3 player and a Digital camera, since K750i, I sold my dedicated MP3 player when I bought K750i, plus around that time my Canon PowerShot A40 2 MP digital camera got broken, so K750i was a fair replacement. I din't have to carry 3 devices any more, only one my K750i (plus MXE-60 ofcourse) . Now I have i-mobile 902 (I'm planning to write a review here on Esato, soon) which I also use as a dedicated MP3 player paired with HPM-70 & HPM-64, and as a dedicated digital camera, but the difference is that now it's a 5 MP Sony CCD camera that I carry in my phone!;)

I use my K750 as mp3 player because of the speaker when I don't want to use headphones and other stuff. I also use it as main camera because it is up to it and feels cool to use the phone.

I use my K810 as my sole MP3 player and my primary camera. We do have another digital camera, but it's 3-4 years old and my phone takes much better pictures.

My K750 was my only camera for the whole time I was using it. I've got a Canon Powershot and an Olympus lying around at home but I feel that my K750 is good enough for my needs. In fact, it actually takes better macro shots than the Olympus, which is a rather old model. Now that I'm using a W810, I use it as my camera, but not my MP3 player cos I've got a Sony MP3 player.

Well as a music player, I'm happy to use my phone. Most of the time it's on the train when it's relatively noisy so sound quality isn't too much of an issue.

But when it comes to cameras, there'd be no way that I'd replace my digicam with a phone. I mean quick snaps are fine for phone cameras, but for anything else the quality difference is far to great to justify using a phone.

In the world of cameras, bigger does generally mean better (sensor size, lens etc.), and for small mobile phones, they can't compete.

@shaliron
I think that only this type of phones could completely replace dedicated digital cameras, but unfortunately they are only available in Japan & Korea! Do you agree with me?

@SaLiH
Honestly, no. Those phones (in Korea like the ones you posted) are really just cameras with the ability to call people. They just strapped a mobile onto a camera, and honestly, they look like monstrosities

Even then, a good digital camera with a nice wide angle, long zoom range, and powerful flash is impossible to put onto a mobile. With those phones, you may have a decent camera, but the phone side of things - ergonomics, texting, size, music player, etc. - are all compromised by having something so big stuck on the back.
