>>3306923You get a DSLR or mirrorless because you want full control over all settings (aperture/shutter speed/ISO) and the option to change lenses for certain situations. For instance a low f-stop lens to throw out the background or a telephoto zoom if you're doing landscapes. In short, it's for people who are knowledgeable and serious about what they want out of their photography. If you're perfectly happy taking snapshits in auto mode with your chink phone then stick with that. You can always download an app like Open Camera to give you some manual control to see how it feels or experiment.
To be honest, a camera is only as good as the lens attached to it so asking if the camera is twice as good is pointless since the quality could rise or fall depending on the lens. Newbs always seem to think the camera body is what is important when it's very much the quality of the glass in front of it that matters.
