Well, you won't find anyone saying their 2022 smartphone outperforms their 2022 DSLR

Because people who find their 2022 smartphone outperforming their 2015 DSLR don't upgrade to a 2022 DSLR.

I sold my DSLR gear in 2015 including my absolute favorite 35/f2 lens, and I have an X100V on backorder in 2022 for its 35mm equivalent f/2 prime lens: seven years of AI missteps and absent bokeh in my preferred framing has finally gotten to me. I know that my phone will take better telephotos, and I know my phone has RAW mode and three lenses and takes amazingly great pictures. So I'm specializing my camera to exactly where I love it most, and will let my phone handle everything else, and I’m content that each has their strengths.
