I have noticed some phones have 50 optical zoom. I saw some pictures of the moon submitted and I am wondering if that is correct? Also do there owners of those phones think it takes pictures better than as digital SLR camera?

well, yeah some phones has 50x zoom (digital zoom, not optical) like the Samsung Galaxy Note 20Ultra, but, as a photographer, and I have used Canon 90D and Canon 60D and other cameras, I would like to say for a phone 50x is still good and the quality is quite good. DSLR cameras use real lenses, so when you zoom the quality stays perfect, but if you try any small camera (not DSLR) it will have same quality as a phone or sometimes a little bit better depending on the lense and the sensor. So 50x in the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is really good

A DSLR takes much better photos than any phone camera. There's no comparing the sensors and the lenses.

ofc no need to compare Cameras and Smartphones, cameras surpasses all Smartphone in quality and even videos. Actually it's unfair to compare the 2, but the Note 20 Ultra it does the job very well, not as a camera quality, but it does the job pretty good

No, it's not 50x optical zoom. It's "digital zoom", aka cropping, aka NOT zoom.
