I can attest to how solid they are. My brother hit me in the nose with the family phone when I was 4 years old. I still have the scar.
My iPhone 5s is doing just fine. I don't see any reason to replace it any time soon.
As for the in-phone camera, I find it useful but it doesn't need to be any better. I use it at Lowes and the hardware store to take pictures of the URLs of bolts and such so the cashier doesn't have to look them up. I can never remember the part number of the oil filter on my mower and you can't see it when it's installed. I stuck the iPhone down between the motor and the frame and blasted away with the phone. Finally got a good picture of number. Very helpful. But I have mixed feelings about phone cameras. . I get annoyed at public functions where so many people are holding phones up taking video, especially if I'm standing behind them.
