You need to figure out WHY the image(s) were blurry. Is it your technique? Are you moving the camera or is the object moving? It is focus issue? Is the object too far away and you have to use too much digital zoom?

A "super zoom" point and shoot might be the best bet. You get optical zoom and lots of features, that if you take time to master them, can improve your photography. See this article for some recommendations -- https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/2016-roundup-compact-enthusiast-zoom-cameras

You need to treat photography like part of your skill set just like your design skills. Practice it, and master it.

Then you need more megapixels. BUT, many times when things look OK on the small screen of a phone or camera, and you get to a large screen and they don't look good it is because of camera motion during the exposure, or digital zoom on a phone. Digital zoom reduces the effective number of pixels the camera has.

I agree, more mega pixels are probably needed
You can pick up a decent enough compact point and shoot camera with 16 to 20 mp for as little as £50 ($60-$70)

Optical zoom is always best, also think about lighting
If your taking photos in low light without an amazeballs sensor its very likely to suffer in quality through "noise" and other capture distortions ;)
A mini tripod may also help steady your shots (depends what you are taking photos of I guess?)
