You're telling people to do more research but don't understand how photography in general works.
The speed of the lens is not the main factor. A Micro4/3 lens at f/2 is cheaper than a full frame lens at f/2, which is cheaper than a medium format in turn. The iPhone's sensors are much smaller still than FF.
The lenses on the iPhone are equivalent to some of the cheapest lenses in any given system.
Indeed, a comparable system would be the 10-18mm EF-S plus whatever kit lens you have.
Talking about relative aperture and angle of view at the same time is incredibly misleading. If you want to talk about angle of view, you need to use absolute aperture.
