Back when I used a separate camera I had a Sony mirrorless and it was great... there's current models that start below $1000 I believe. Or the Canon EOS M200 I've heard is pretty good.
But as phone cameras got much better I stopped using my camera.
I agree, I'd rather put that money into a higher end phone than a camera unless I knew I was going to be using the camera in ways I couldn't use the phone.
That said there's a Sony a6000 kit on Facebook for $1300 which includes the camera, a 16-50mm kit lens, a 55-210mm zoom, and a 30mm F1.4 which is a pretty good camera hobby starter kit.
