From the looks of several photos here, it appears as if the iPhone camera is extremely sensitive to how clean the lens is (and I don't mean rub on your shirt clean, I mean photographic lens cleaner clean), glare on the lens (one should shade it from any direct light with something), and absolute light level (noisy sensor).
Got a tip for us?

Is your camera quality any better or worse than this?

It's not zooming in, it's simply cropping a section of the photo out so it looks closer. You could do the exact same thing in iPhoto or Photoshop after the photo has been taken.
I fish the Bahamas alot, gotta love being out on the water. There's nothing like it.
Just took this last week, for a posting on watchforums. I love the camera on the iphone, lighting and a steady hand makes a big difference though.
I've found that its all in the lighting. I'm very impressed w/ the pics my phone can take on a sunny day. in low lighting the pics look worst than that of my old moto v3
I use the iPhone as my digital camera for traveling etc. I think it is great. In the future models will it be great to up the lens quality a bit, more mega pixels, focus in the software and zoom etc? Sure, but I love it for what it is now. It has saved me at least a couple hundred dollars from not getting a new digital camera so I am happy
This is about the best I could get from the iPhone. Of course it IS Big Sur, so it naturally looks "good".
I wish Apple had used a higher resolution lens. It also seems to have problems in lower light, WAY too slow.
All those pinky-blue dots in your picture is camera noise and low resolution ( 2mp ).
So I don't think higher resolution lens would help much. ( i believe you mean better quality lens )
What Apple need is a better image sensor for the iPhone 3G...
