Generally, if you are shelling out the kind of money for a dslr or mirrorless, you want control over the final image. I shoot in raw and tweak the images I like by hand in darkroom. Lightroom is another option if you want to support adobe.

It takes longer but the end result looks MUCH better than anything your phone can produce. That said, sometimes I just want to take a selfie and not fiddle too much. Thats when I use my google pixel.

What might be useful for the next generation of prosumer cameras is being able to capture depth data (which is probably the main differentiator allowing computational photography to work on smartphones), with editing tools like Photoshop eventually supporting it.
lidar builtin to the mirrorless that takes a depth would be amazing. not just for computational photography but also to make focusing way more accurate!
