Q.
A. Its good enough,
but if you are buying it for the camera there are quite a lot of 8mp camera phones on the market,
Nokia on average do the best cameras on their phones pretty sure they all have a Carl Zeiss lens
I still use a Nokia N8 from 2010, as it has a 12mp camera, and the HD video recorder and playback is still much better then the new iPhone, its so good they made a whole film using it (google 'Olive' N8).
Unfortunately I will be upgrading my N8 soon as two many music festivals have taken its toll, but i'm sticking with Nokia, if you can't carry a 'real' camera, a decent Nokia is the next best thing.
Most Camera Phones take a picture, but then to display or store it 'down-grade' the picture, that's why you will not see much difference between an iPhone 4s and a lower quality camera phone, this is another reason a small purpose built 'point and click' digital camera is better then a camera phone
(don't listen to anyone who says an iPhone has a decent camera, they are just trying to justify spending so much money on basic tech with a logo) so you will probably not see a huge difference between a 3.5 and anything up to 8mp on a camera phone, unless it has a great display, or you upload it to a computer and see how far you can zoom in on the picture.
A 3.15 mp Camera is fine, you will not find anything wrong with that, it will be a perfectly good camera, and if its the Samsung Galaxy (from the spec I think it is) the display is good and clear so the pictures will look good.
If on the other hand you are buying the phone to use it more for taking pictures then going on the internet and using apps etc then I would go for at least an 8mp.
Ask any photographer and they will say its still best to use a 'real' camera, but I admit the only reason I went for the N8 is because I can't always have an SLR on me, its the best I have found in a phone.
Interestingly the new Nokia 808 has a 5mp camera, but its sensor and digital zoom enables it to take pictures up to 41mp.
What is the best camera phone?
Q.
A. The iphone 4 has a very nice camera, because it is cmos and backlit.
The upcoming Sony-Ericsson Arc also has a very nice 8.1mp camera built into it.
The later to be released samsung galaxy S2 is able to record in 1080p and should also have a nice camera.
There are some korean phones by samsung for instance that sport a big zoom lens on a phone, but it isn't marketed in the us and europe.

Is 2MP good image quality?
Q. So I was checking out Samsung 8GB Galaxy Player 4.2 (YP-GI1CW/XAC) and was looking at their camera quality. The spec:
Still Image Resolution - 2MP
Video Resolution - 640 X 480
Video Frame Rate - 30 fps
So is it right that it produces somewhat high quality images, but poor videos? Can anyone give me a more in-depth explanation on what exactly 2MP means?
A. I shot this photo with a 2 megapixel camera http://www.urbanphotos.net/images/LVCD/slides/boardwalk_closeup2.html
It was an Olympus with 10x zoom, C20 or something. I forget the model number. I've owned dozens of digital cameras since they first came out. "Megapixels" isn't an indicator of image quality. The number of pixels is just a general guideline as to how large you can print the image on paper without distortions.
2MP = 1600 x 1200 which would be 100 dpi at 16x12 print size or 200 dpi at 8x6 print size. If you're using a camera that's built into a smart phone or MP3 player or whatever, image quality will not be very good. You have no shutter speed control. You have no aperture control. You have a tiny plastic lens that can't even really be called a "lens". You have no optical zoom. You can't adjust the ISO. You can't adjust the white balance. It''s basically a toy camera, the images won't look much better than what you'd get from a $5 cardboard disposable camera. Maybe worse.
