There's no need to jump on this at this price unless you really want an a7iii and have access to a EDU account.
Personally I shoot on this camera like a ton of other SD users and love it. It's a great full frame camera and keeps professional work cheap using something like Tamron glass. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to get more seriously into photography, but not totally break the bank on your budget getting setup.
Thumbs up from me. 👍👍👍
The difference is modern smartphones remove the need for proper knowledge and technique to produce fairly nice photos.
Too many people think buying an expensive camera will make them take better pictures. It wont. You as a person have to be able to use the camera effectively.
All else equal an unskilled individual will take substantially better pictures on a phone.

That'll come to the photography market, but there's a lot less R&D in this area, because there's less demand and because these cameras don't just happen to have bleeding-edge silicon in them like phones do. For now if you want to dynamically adjust sharpness or exposure in a subject-aware manner with a camera like the A7III, you're doing it in post, and in most cases you're doing it yourself.
One thing is for sure, a "real" camera is a tool with MUCH greater creative control, and with much more ability to produce a high quality image than any phone. That's not elitism, it's just a fact. Perhaps someday we'll get cell phone cameras that can truly accomplish what you'd get from a 12-1000mm f/1.0 macro lens, but we're not there yet. So some of us haul around 10lbs worth of camera gear, cause we want those results.

I saw so many guys who claim those cameras are for real photographying hobbiest or pros, but end up with worse pictures than iPhone does. Just let them go away.
