and there are no cheap phone camera reviews?
 
Maybe because they're not seen as competition to entry level cameras.

Most likely the sale figures show that most sold mobilephones are in the upper tear as people seem to be inclined to buy the latest greatest.
 
I would imagine it takes some time to test a phone, so they focus on the ones that are of most interest to people. I am sure an iPhone X review generates more site traffic than some random cheapo phone.

Same reason why DPR stopped reviewing normal p&s cameras 8 years ago. Lack of interest. Plus they now give low end dslrs a much briefer reviews than normal

Review is not egg boiling or toaster test. Do you how much time to learn the new device, its in&out, pro&con, strength&weakness, etc, etc.

Ten seconds?

Two minutes?

No, it's days.

Then you operate it, use it in all possible ways. Phone today is not phone but multifunction device. Each function needs time.

After all the functions tested, you need to write down and publish.

...

Lot of talk.

Try review your own phone at half extensive as DPR has done and publish only half the detail. You can do this now.
