I disagree. In theory, you are right. In practice not so. It's true that all the sensors in mobiles are not the same size but generally they all are WAY TO SMALL so more pixels mean less quality. My ancient minolta Z1 make far better photos than any mobile.
IMHO, 3MP is more than fullHD and enough for majority of consumers. But modern consumers are blind, stupid and have no idea about what they are actually buying but mantra "bigger number is better" is always present.
