- The battery capacity of the One Touch Scribe HD is 2500 mAh, significantly larger than the 1830 mAh of the LG, potentially providing longer usage time.
- On the software side, the alcatel runs Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), while the LG initially comes with Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) but can be upgraded to 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), which may limit its software experience compared to the alcatel.
