As you can see by my 6047 on 57 picture (https://flic.kr/p/TcjfjN), flaring also is an issue in very bright scenarios - in all fairness, gateshead high street is dark with a tonne of reflection. I love how easily I can take good quality nigjt pictures, though.
Bit late, but looks a cracker.
I'm still on my S6 but I'm extremely impressed with the versitility of it still. With the post above and my last few flickr pictures, I've been dead impressed with the quality. I folded on getting an upgrade just because of how simple it is - point and click in pro settings with good enough control over shutter/iso for easy night pictures. I'd need a good slr to match the quality and ease of use from my research, but not many people are as fortunate to have a good enough phone camera or understand how to adapt it (took me 2 years to get good pictures on it...) to get anything half decent. I'm not after best quality ever, so it suits my style.
Sorry for late reply! It certainly is a good camera. May not be the best at the quality compared to DLSRs, though but is by far decent for my first camera. I think it was around £250, and I got it for my birthday.
To test the quality, I took this photo tonight: https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/140920997@...761177175/
Although it isn't a photo of a bus, I'm incredibly impressed of that quality.
I'm even getting better during the day, as you can see with the growing number of likes (https://flic.kr/p/TcjfjN).
Here are some better east coast pictures:

You know, this is a decent quality on all pictures, even if they're not good. I love taking pictures and I take pride in the hobby. I'm not interested in spending money if it causes frustration and adds complication. What I love about the hobby is how I can walk out of the door, find a place to take pictures and do so. It's so simple.
