It is a lower mid-range camera which always has sub-par features... let's be honest.

It's not clear which camera you are referring to, but in my opinion there are no sub-par cameras in the current line up, just different models with different features to suit differing desires and affordability criteria. Furthermore, I doubt in a 'blind' viewing that any of us could tell their outputs apart when using the same lens.

The X-E series of course... it never comes to the market with exciting features. It is just a solid camera but never exciting. Size is it’s main feature.

Not sure that’s fair.. the XE1 and XE2 were so early on in the X system that all their features were exciting (the XE2 was the first Fuji ILC with phase detect autofocus for example).. the XE3 introduced Bluetooth which was new and exciting at the time, and also had all new AF speed improvements.. they’re firmly mid range but I don’t think there’s any rule that says they have to be boring or never include new features.

I guess we have different definitions of what exiting is... though I do have to concede on phase detect. However, in practice the AF still wasn’t a game changer.

It’s ok to admit you just forgot about the Bluetooth.

No, I honestly just do not care about this.  Completely unexciting.

The point is the XE3 (just like the XE2) actually introduced a whole new technology to the X system - it did more than just recycle existing parts and features from the higher end cameras.

As it pertains to actual photography...and not gadgetry, I will hold my position.

The XTx0 line on the other hand - what exciting new feature did that ever bring?

Nothing...but they sure are a hell of a value compared to its bigger brother.
