Bokeh is physics, for smaller objects it's easier to reach some DoF even with f/4-6. On the 1st example the bokeh is, subjectively, very far from the SLR level, displaying a lot of onion rings and generally busy texture. For portraiture and street photography fast primes will still produce much more pleasing results. For now. I agree that we are certainly getting somewhere with the phone cameras, but I'm not sure where the ceiling is.
