I assume you don't own an action cam.

There is no comparison.

Easiness to hold and wide FOV are game changers.

I often record for 5-10 minute chunks. Holding my phone for that amount of time while walking around would suck.

A phone is great for a 30 second video clip here and there. but if you really want to record a whole day of activity a phone sucks to use.

In my most recent trip i took 4 hours of footage over 10 days. I would never enjoy doing that on my phone.

Who does want or watch 10 min videos?
These videos are mostly for my own and my family's enjoyment.
