Do iphone 4 have good quality cameras?

So i'm buying a second hand iphone because thats all i can afford and its an iphone 4 and i really only want it for the usual phone stuff like texting and calling and whatnot but i'm 16 and wanna take a lot of photos and selfies so i want a decent camera and i was wondering if the 4 is a good quality? I've heard there's a leap from 4 and 4s and my friend has a 4s and its really good quality. Like front and back camera, how good is it? I also noticed the 4s and 5 back camera quality are pretty much the same, is there much difference in the back camera quality of the 4? I don't really care about zoom and stuff just its effectiveness in a darker lighting and sharpness and is the front camera okay?

No there's not much of a leap from the 4 to 4s. I deal with iPhones of all models everyday and between those two there's not a big difference. Apple lists the difference as 3 mp, the 4 has a 5mp camera and the 5 has an 8mp, but the front facing camera is much less. You will not see much of a difference between the two.

I have an iphone 5c but my friend has a 4 and the camera quality is amazing on both sides its worth getting.

  • Why does my iPhone receive good quality videos as bad quality videos? So I recently met a famous guy in concert and when I got a picture wth him I was getting a video and my friend used her phone to video it. So she sent it to me and it was like terrible quality and the video was like little with a huge black border around it. But yet it looks perfectly fine on her phone? How do I fix it? Whenever I try to get video editing apps it always says error & only with that particular video. I have an iPhone 5c, and so does my friend.
  • Why do old cameras have awful pic quality although the MP is higher then my phone? So I have an old compact camera with 12.1 MP, which i got around 2010 or 2011. I recently got a charger to charge my old camera to try out cuz I thought it would have a better quality then my iPhone 7 Plus (12MP). But when I tried taking pictures with my old camera it looks like it only have 1MP. I'm so confused because the MP are the same yet the photo quality has such big difference. Any idea why?
  • What cameras have similar quality as Iphone 5? I'm looking for a camera for portrait and scenery photos. I really like the quality of my phone, but I would like something with better zoom that I can put a strap on and get a lot closer. Any ideas? It does not need to be super fancy and expensive, just similar to my phone.
  • What are some really good quality cameras? I'm really interested in photography. I've been inspired ever since I was taking pictures with my best friend's new iPhone, which surprisingly takes really good pictures. Unfortunately, I can't afford an iPhone and don't want one either, and I'm incredibly overwhelmed by all of the choices for cameras. So, my budget is about $250, because I still want some pocket money leftover, and I'm wondering if anyone has tips/camera experience? Please let me know.
