You mentioned in the first post the phone was hand held, do you know what the exposure time was?
They are crisp, no visible shake that's why I'm curios about the exposure.
The phone images look brighter and a little crisper but I'd still prefer the DSLR and as Bob mentioned, enlarging the phone image will show pixelation compared to the DSLR.
I have a stand for my phone so it goes on a tripod and a couple of very small tripods which are very handy on short notice.
Because I had a phone with a poor camera going back (still do) I picked up a Canon compact with a 20 Mp sensor and my initial purpose was to keep it in my car so if I was out I had a decent camera. I eventually decided against that because of the heat and it wasn't the cheapest camera (relative to disability pension). I have older Samsung and Nikon compacts I picked up for a song at Salvation Army (condition unknown, both needed new batteries) and while older than my Canon and not the image quality I still can't bring myself to leave them in a hot car. This is where the phone wins out, it's in my jeans pocket if I go anywhere (mostly).
My little Canon does good macro shots but I don't understand the menu so my son uses it, he's very good with it (I can't read the tiny menu even with glasses), I'm also not so good without a viewfinder because it's how I stabilise cameras, prop my body against a wall and prop the camera against a thick, ugly, brainless skull. Holding anything at arms length just doesn't work for me.
You mention the Canon kit lens, which lens is it?
I'd love a dedicated macro for my Nikon, one day I may get lucky and acquire one, till then it's extension tubes.
