Sensitivity or sheer size of the sensor - phone sensors gather typically 4.5 stops less light.

Also phones do a lot of processing of the image - some even do internal focus stacking.

Not sure I understand that? 
I BELIEVE my FX sensor gives the same exposure settings as the DX sensor for the same lighting? (Need to treble check that belief)

I wonder if Jeff, who is now using the 4/3 Olympus, has seen an increase in ‘light gathering’ over his Nikon DX models?
It could be a big advantage for bird photography (along with the 2x multiplier effect) if it gives better performance than FX and DX in low light!
