These are two capable phones with similar screen sizes, the same processor, similar RAM, big batteries, and excellent cameras.
If there are a few areas Samsung clearly wins out here, it's the bigger 4,000 mAh battery and the cameras. Even though the OP6T sports a dual camera array, Samsung's dual rear cameras are better. Samsung's still a leader in the camera department. |
