200 Megapixel sensor Smarthpone camera in the works, Motorola
It is still a rumor, but Motorola would be releasing a 200Mp camera sensor next year, which will be the first of its kind. Samsung and Xiaomi as well would begin employing the sensor in 2023.
Motorola's 200-megapixel camera phone, according to a report from a Twitter user going by the handle "Ice Universe," will be the first to hit store shelves. After that, Xiaomi, which is slated to introduce its new smartphone with a 200-megapixel camera in the second half of next year, will take the lead. Additional information provided by the source stated that Samsung wants to release its 200-megapixel camera phone in 2023 — following the launches of Motorola and Xiaomi devices.
In addition to the 200-megapixel camera phone, Motorola is reportedly working on the Moto Edge X which may feature a 60-megapixel OmniVision OV60A 0.61μm selfie camera sensor. The Moto Edge X would also have a 50-megapixel 1 / 1.55-inch OmniVision OV50A main camera on the rear as well.

Bigger MP is good for perhaps...a security camera with a zoom lens on the front?

Not always the advancement in technology goes into to direction we want.
However, it is another step to something better.
The debate is on, bigger sensor with bigger pixel treatment after taking a picture or more megapixels.
Some will buy it just because or to brag. Or because they don't know better and fall for marketing advertising.
But some will buy it for nefarious purposes.
I'll give just one example. Taking a picture of someone's fingers could render a plausible silicon skin fingerprint. Anyone remembers the Angela Merkel incident?

Bigger sensors would impress me. Bigger Mp count? No.
