os
|
| Direct updates by OS vendor |
Yes |
vs |
No |
It can be updated directly by the OS vendor, so no need to wait until the manufacturer or network provider releases an update.

|
lens
|
| Clearly wider aperture |
f/2 |
vs |
f/2.6 |
23.08% wider aperture. The wider an aperture, the more light the image sensor gets. More light helps avoiding blur by employing a faster shutter speed. Aperture sizes are expressed in f-stops, the smaller the better. In addition, wide lenses provide a narrow depth of field enabling to focus on the subject and blur the background.

camera
|
| Has continuous autofocus when recording movies |
Yes |
vs |
No |
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
|
| Has a dedicated camera button |
Yes |
vs |
No |
A dedicated camera button allows you to take snapshots more easily.
|
| Has a flash w/ dual-LEDs |
Yes |
vs |
No |
Two LEDs are brighter than flashes with just one LED.
|
| Has sensor shift stabilization |
Yes |
vs |
No |
The sensor capturing the image can be moved in such a way as to counteract the motion of the camera, often referred to as mechanical image stabilization which is superior to a electronic stabilization only. When the camera rotates, causing angular error, gyroscopes encode information to the actuator that moves the sensor.

| Significantly more megapixel (photo) |
8.7 MP |
vs |
8 MP |
8.75% more megapixel (photo).
|
| Has a brand lens |
Yes |
vs |
No |
A brand manufacturer provides the camera's lens.
|
| Has a two-stage shutter |
Yes |
vs |
No |
A two-stage shutter allows photo shooting like a pro: with the first press the camera focusses, with the second it shoots.

physical
|
| Vastly lower SAR for body (USA) |
0.91 W/kg |
vs |
1.49 W/kg |
0.58 W/kg lower SAR for body (USA). SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) describes how much radio frequency energy emitted by the device will be absorbed by your body. The rate is measured at hip level. The legal limit is 1.6 W/kg in the USA.
|
| Shorter |
130.3 mm |
vs |
136.6 mm |
6.3 mm shorter.
|
| Has stereo speakers |
Yes |
vs |
No |
Devices with stereo speakers deliver sound that surrounds the user from left and right side, creating a richer sound and a better experience.
|

power
|
| Wireless charging |
Yes |
vs |
No |
It can be charged w/o any plugs and wires similar to electric shavers or toothbrushes (as extra).

display
|
| Higher resolution |
768 x 1280 px |
vs |
720 x 1280 px |
6.67% higher resolution.
|
| A little bit higher pixel density |
332 ppi |
vs |
306 ppi |
8.5% higher pixel density.
|
| Every pixel has three subpixels |
Yes |
vs |
No |
The device has three full subpixels per pixel which results in a sharp and crisp picture. Pixels in some displays (like AMOLED) share one subpixel to preserve space. It may result in less crisp or little blurred image.

cpu
|
| Vastly smaller semiconductor size/newer CPU |
28 nm |
vs |
32 nm |
12.5% smaller semiconductor size/newer CPU.
|
|
recording
|
| A trifle more microphone(s) |
3 |
vs |
2 |
1 more microphone(s). More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.
