IIRC monochrome setups have been historically bad, or at least don't really contribute to the quality of colored images.

They don't. I believe Huawei used to market the monochrome sensors on earlier phones as some sort of way to improve light reception via merging with the main RBG sensor. Honestly, I think that was BS. At least on my Mate 10 Pro back in the day.

That said, though, monochrome sensors are capable of some really great shots. Better than what a B/W filter could achieve. I'd rather have a monochrome sensor than some rubbish macro lens or whatever.

Hmm, better than a crappy macro, of course, but definitely more expensive because it's gonna be full sized. Basically a dual-main sensor setup with severely diminishing returns.
We'll find out soon enough.
