yeah I don't doubt that a dedicated flashlight is miles better than my phone, but I rarely need a flashlight at all, and the times I do 99% of the time my phone is more than sufficient. I don't want to carry something around all the time just so that in the rare occasion I do need it it's marginally better (from a purely practical perspective) than what I was already going to have with me. When I need a flashlight, it's because something fell under a piece of furniture, or the lights went out in a room - it's never a scenario when i need to be able to light up a field or something
