Specs aside, image quality isn't much of an improvement on what we see from smartphone cameras. Even in bright conditions, subtle details were mistaken for noise and smudged away by noise reduction, and sharp lines looked a little spidery. The centre of frames were reasonably sharp but focus deteriorated towards the edges, particularly on left side of the frame. This was strong enough to be visible even after we'd resized photos to fit on a computer screen
This other review is more positive overall - it is good value for money afterall, but still falls down on image quality, as I mentioned:

In terms of still image quality, the camera does okay at lower sensitivities, providing bright and colourful results in the default Standard setting. However, there are big question marks over the amount of detail the camera can capture.
But even these pictures will be better than no picture at all. Hence if you need something cheap and more camera control like than phone control like then it might be worth going for.
