They're handy in a pinch, but if you're a photographer, you'd have a real camera with you anyway.
And for choosing such a convenience, there's a similar insight in understanding what its strengths/weaknesses are, and which ones are more easily compensated for. For example, in the above URL's comparison test, probably the most obvious setting where the iPhone needed improvement (even though it won, by having grain instead of OOF), so then the photographer's question becomes how easy it is to clean up such a shot in post processing.
Well, here's that image, run through Photoshop's "smartblur" on default settings; the previously grainy iPhone shot cleaned up very nicely, and without apparent loss of detail:

Perhaps it is because Nikon doesn't offer leases...? ;-)Oh, I now remember, you think the Nikon D800E costs a fortune, so maybe the Lumia is the most expensive "camera" you can afford? Made in china!Gary
