Thats why they can't just jump up to 8k. Its just too much for that sensor size to handle. Smart phones get away with it because well they are smart phones and the quality kind of sucks anyway. Plus they do a crap load of NR and processing to help that crap sensor along. If you remove the over processing and heavy NR that 8k on a smartphone sensor will really be horrendous. Have you ever seen a raw photo from a iPhone? Its not very pretty. Pixel size is important and m43 can only shrink those pixels so much. I for one am super glad m43 didn't go 8k yet.
