Here are some more controlled comparisons using a tripod. Artificial + natural light. Distance about a meter. All cams in Auto. iPhone HDR on.

First the uncropped full shot.



Then . . .


iPhone 5


Samsung Galaxy IIs


Panasonic LX2 (6 yrs old?)


Sony RX100


Canon Rebel XSi

As you can see, the iPhone 5 does good job but has noise. The Samsung is washed & WB is reddish. The LX2 washes a bit & WB is bluish. The Sony is slightly darker WB compared to the Canon DSLR.
