I will miss the 3x lens a lot. It’s by far the best for detailed pictures of small things. The 0.5 distorts angles if you get close for macro mode and the 1x cant get close enough without blurring the image.

FWIW I don’t miss it at all.

Me neither lol. It had little use due to the small sensor size and not taking in enough light. Now, if they put the large sensor on the telephoto…

I'd rather they just gave the 1x lens macro ability so we could get those shots at full 48mp resolution.

Ya, I would way rather a 3x with the sensor the size of the 1x and an increase to the maximum aperture
