> no, your iPhone is not in anyway comparable to an actual dedicated camera

9 times out of 10 when I see someone making this claim it’s engagement bait. They know it triggers people and generates interactions.

I think most people are well aware that they’re not the same. The point usually made is that it’s amazing that we can get such good photos out of something that fits in our pockets. In well-lit scenes you really can get some impressive image quality out of those tiny devices.
