The phone usually does a decent job taking images, however digital camera's are more advanced and can take higher-quality pictures. A digital camera usually has more megapixels which result in better quality images. If purchasing a digital camera, you should buy one with at least eight megapixels. Always remember that high-tech and fancy equipment does not always result in better images. Lighting, scenery, position all come in play when taking pictures. For everyday photographs I would suggest using a phone as it is more convenient to carry, but if you are going for vacation, or a popular tourist area I would suggest to use a camera to get a better quality and higher resolution image.
