Then somebody is doing something wrong cause it takes really good pictures. Not $2,000 DSLR great, but still very good!

your definately right, someone is doing something wrong, OP should buy an expensive professional camera if this phone doesn't meet his standards. quality is indeed very good.
The pics I am seeing look like they were taken on a note3, no joke. Also, the rog2 has no ois. Wtf???

Nope no OIS. But it hands down has the best EIS I've ever seen on a phone. In both photo and video modes it stabilizes REALLY well.

Edit: short clip from someone else on YouTube of stabilization. This is even at 4k recording which most phones with EIS won't do (they usually limit EIS to 1080p only)

The built in camera software isn't great, but the phone is in the upper echelon of photo quality when you use Gcam

The IMX586 is easily top 2 or 3 camera sensors out there when paired with good software.

Pictures at full resolution (48MP) is honestly crap due to the fact that at that resolution, the camera doesnt support HDR+ for some reason.

At 12MP however, the pictures are above average IMO
