What's the minimum pixels needed to get a decent picture? and got a better answer

Forget the pixels. The main and primary role played by the size of the matrix. Chinese phones have a lot of megapixels, and the pictures are crap. First of all the sensor, then the other components?

everything is about pixels. It all depends on the sensor.

just a quick guess- about 70-100 pixels, like on film. It's pretty much what it looks like.

First, let's define the term "decent picture". that's HOW?:-0

2MP.

Depending on what you are going to print it or view it on a computer monitor. For viewing on the monitor and printing 10x15, 2-3 megapixels is enough.

Quality of the picture does not depend on megapixels but on the size of the sensor and the quality of the optics.

it depends on what kind of photo. 10x15 or A3?

Response from 0[+++++]
combination of many parameters determines the decentness of photos 1. illumination 2. Matrix size and manufacturer year of manufacture 3. The quality of the optics 4. The optimum ratio of the parameters you set on the camera.

Depends on the size of the print For 10x15 for instance 3 megapixel is enough.

Instagram does with photos with six hundred thousand pixels.

Response from 0[+++++]
16 megapixels is optimal

2 - 3. Yes there will still be some left over.

Please clarify what you consider a decent photo?

Find Photo Size and Photo Resolution. on Wikipedia, Does your concept of a decent photo include a decent photo as well?

megapixels not so important megapixels weight and heaviness as for processor of the camera warms up and brakes and memory clogging Much more important optics: Lens power - This is a measure of the maximum aperture of the lens and the quality of the optics. The lower the f-number e.g. f 1.4 the faster the lens, the more possibilities! Sensitivity of the sensor is the quality of the sensor. You need at least 8 and f2.0 or less, at most 3.5
