Coming from Mercedes, do the cameras suck? On a Turbo that's fully optioned the resolution feels low, and the framerate feels like 15FPS, eg it's not smooth or fluid. Standard for Porsche? Is there a setting to increase quality that I haven't found?

This is unfortunately a common complaint and a "standard" for some time.

Amazing. Terrible idea to skimp on something we all use daily and where expectations are so high eg "My Iphone looks so much better".

Then again it didn't stop anyone from buying.

The problem with this is that if they suck now they will look positively ancient in 5 years ..

What about the top 360 view cameras are they OK? I use those for packing up most of the time anyway

Compared to my Cayenne yes the cameras are pretty garbage. A bit of an improvement from my 2019 Macan but still I would expect a bit more.
