Some android phones are comparable. My Note 3 takes pictures roughly equivalent to my sisters 5s, for example. But most android phones are far behind in that sense.

I think that's an over-reaching generalization. There are hundreds of different pieces of hardware running Android, and many of them have comparable or better cameras. Personally, I use iPhones, even though I've tried using Android phones on numerous occasions. Different cameras excel in different situations. When I had the Nexus 4 and iPhone 5, I found that the iPhone's camera was far superior in indoor (poor lighting) conditions, but the Nexus 4 was just as good in good light. It's all relative and depends on what your application is.
I've never considered a phone to be a replacement for a camera - it's merely a "passable" convenience when you have nothing else to shoot with. Although I have plenty friends that'll argue 'til their deaths that the iPhone 5 is the best camera that has ever graced this planet, and will point out hundreds of restricted, biased reviews that will confirm their opinions. My point & shoot Canon SD1400IS takes consistently better photos than my iPhone 5 (and forget the DSLR comparison), but I almost never have it with me, whereas the phone is glued to me. Convenience.
Nobody is comparing a cell phone camera to a real camera. I have no idea where you got that from.

I just reread it and misunderstood it the first time around. Never mind!
