Ricoh GR IIIx HDF
A pocketable fixed-lens camera with a built-in highlight diffusion filter, real street-photo credibility, and much more object appeal than another phone-camera attachment.
The GR IIIx HDF is expensive in the way good compact cameras are expensive: mildly offensive until you remember it is a real camera that actually fits in a coat pocket.

~$1,100–$1,150
Best for
Travel, street photography, everyday carry camera kits, and people who want a real camera without voluntarily becoming a backpack person.
Skip if
Your phone is already enough, you want zoom, or the price makes used GR III/GR IIIx models look suddenly wise.
