Ugh, when are people going to realize that in all reality a powershot from 2010 is in all likelihood going to produce better looking files than any smartphone and this is basically down to physics.

of course given that it has a raw capture.

actually I believe 2nd renaissance of the small digital camera is just around the corner.

I was thinking about that the other day.

Smartphones have come a long way but they are physically and ergonomically limited.

People will find out their limitations for serious use and renew their interested for dedicated cameras in the next years.

Yes, Apple have put larger, better sensors with newer generation, but  they have been forced to reduce the main camera focal length as well, the last one has a 24mm lens which is not good for general photography or people shots. The iPhone 4 had a most usable 35mm lens. The latest Leica/Sharp smartphone which has a 1” sensor is using a 20mm lens !

Ideally, anyone who can afford it, would have a decent dedicated camera plus a smartphone when portability and convenience matters more.
