Funny you mention not phone photography.
My daughter said she wanted a phone and said mainly for a camera. She had won a small digital in a photographic competition years ago and had some other small digital cameras. I offered her my old Canon DSLR which has the two "kit lens" ...she declined saying that as the phone was so portable she felt she would use it more..I tried to tell her how much better the DSLR was and that she could use it and buy a much cheaper phone...well she bought the phone and it has two front lenses and frankly the photos she is taking blow me away...close ups no problem..some of her insect shots are magnificent as are her flowers...but she does seem to have the knack or the eye to capture stuff that just makes it appealing.
Anyways I got me one of those twin lens phone and found it will do up to a 60x zoom which of course is not optical but the images are way past my expectations...

I don't dismiss phones (just here) they it is at least good to see people taking photographs, my parents never did 50 years ago so there are no records of me as a child or any of their past, I have albums of my sons growing up.
Also it is nice to hang photos on walls in the house
