Summary

  • The Alcatel 1V (2019) features a 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 480 x 960 pixels, while the Samsung Galaxy J3 Emerge has a smaller 5.0-inch TFT display with a higher resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in better pixel density.
  • In terms of performance, the Alcatel is powered by a Unisoc SC9863A chipset, whereas the Galaxy J3 Emerge utilizes a Qualcomm Snapdragon 430, both with 16GB of storage but differing RAM configurations.
  • The camera systems are similar with both offering a 5 MP rear camera, but the J3 Emerge has a wider aperture (f/1.9) for potentially better low-light performance and a lower resolution selfie camera at 2 MP compared to the 5 MP on the Alcatel.
  • Battery capacity is slightly higher in the J3 Emerge at 2600 mAh versus 2460 mAh in the Alcatel, but both lack fast charging.
  • The Alcatel runs on Android 9.0 Pie (Go edition), while the J3 Emerge operates on older versions of Android, limiting software experience and updates.
