Hell this meme is old enough that they probably used a point and shoot to take the photo instead of a smart phone.

But if it was that old, they wouldn't have known that future phones would be able to take pictures. Therefore they wouldn't have made the joke in the first place.

True hadn't thought about that. You're probably right but there was a significant overlap between the release of the iPhone and when people stopped using small digital cameras. Plus mirror selfies with flip phones was a thing.
