the bokeh is ordinary this confirms that there is a need to pay the extra for a 56mm and live with the extra size and. weight or get a Iphone X that is touted the best portrait camera available

I am inclined to agree.. I like the quality of the bokeh; just surprised at this FL and the distance between subjects, that it is not more separated. My wider (and admittedly f1.4) 35mm separates much more easily. I expected this longer FL to compensate with better separation.

Not to detract from the images.. i really liked all of them.

There is a very fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness.' :'!':
