Is there much room for increase....ie, the small sensor even at f2 is probably equivalent to f12-13 on a full frame camera. I think in order to get shallow depth of field or bokeh, you have to shoot very very close. If you are getting shallow depth of field or bokeh with a cell phone camera its probably being "manufactured" by the camera.

the flagships offer quite impressive equivalent apertures of around f7 on their main camera.

But like you pointed out, on a 24 or 26mm wideangle lens this doesnt exactly mean its easy to get blurry backgrounds unless youre close.
