In most cases I can instantly tell whether someone joined a meeting from their laptop or from their smartphone. When it's ugly it's the former. You may not care but many people had their expectations raised by smartphones.

The growing image-processor unpleasantness

On the rare occasions when a colleague has to join a meeting from their phone it's certainly easy to tell, the sound quality is abysmal, the picture is usually bobbing around madly and generally the impression is complete amateur hour.

I understand from dealing with audiophiles that "better" actually just means "different and I prefer it", but of course with audiophiles all you do about it is filter the audio until it's as "different and I prefer it" as they wanted. It's no problem to smash CD audio until it's as "rich" (ie distorted) as they think it ought to be and perhaps if it's what people want we can do the same for video meetings.

Tripod mounts for phones are cheap and readily available. I routinely do television using my phone's front-facing camera.
