Why spend another €400 or €500 if the phone does it?
Because it sucks infinitely to use a touch screen interface when trying to be creative? I wouldn't even consider using my phone as a camera unless it's purely for documentation. Takes all the joy of photographing away.
By trying to be creative you mean setting shutter speed, f-stop, EV and ISO manually? If that is what you regard as fun, then we are back to my initial question: Why is the X-half more fun than the X-E with a pancake?
I haven't used the X-Half so I can't answer that question. I simply explained why a phone is not an option for some of us. Just the difficulty to hold the damn thing and press the tiny "shutter button" without touching everything else is bad enough.
The X-E cameras are much larger and more expensive, so that comparison makes no sense either.
Pointless comparing price to an old, used camera. But regarding size you are wrong.
True for the X-E5 - not true for the X-E3
