Maybe? Depends on how it's used and if it looks good. Maybe they chose it because it looks a bit shit.

The Creator garnered some attention because it looked great while being shot on a relatively inexpensive camera. I do think people would be really surprised at what you'd get with a gimbal mounted cellphone with a 360° camera in terms of special effects integration, but this might not be their route.

I looked at the article and it turns out the phones are in humongous housings with cine lenses. So not shot with phones in the way it might sound. Citizenfour (2013 best documentary Oscar) was mostly shot with a Sony FS-100 camcorder (2K HD I'm pretty sure) that the filmmaker carried in her purse.
