I would recommend the iPhone, but not for the camera. My dad has a Nexus 5 that took far better pictures than the iPhone 5ses (however you write out multiple iPhone 5s) we have now. If I were to guess why, it was the optical image stabilization.n The Nexus 5 seemed to perform better in darker rooms as well. I've just come to accept that any picture I take indoors with my iPhone will be most likely be blurry. Some of the outdoor ones I've taken are good. But there are several occasions I've regretted not using my Canon S110 over the iPhone. For me, there is still a world of difference in the picture quality between a stand-alone camera and a phone camera. And to me the leaps in phone image quality are not that huge. My LG Dare didn't take fantastic photos, but the quality of those pictures, even at 3.2 MP, is closer to the iPhone than the iPhone is to Canon S110.
Maybe the iPhone 6s Plus with its optical image stabilization is better, but that's too big for my taste for a phone.
