Summary

  • The Archos 55 Graphite features a 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, while the Lava Z81 has a slightly larger 5.7-inch IPS LCD with a higher resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, resulting in a better pixel density.
  • In terms of performance, the Lava Z81 is powered by a more advanced Mediatek MT6761 Helio A22 chipset with a higher clock speed of 2.0 GHz compared to the Archos's Mediatek MT6737 at 1.5 GHz.
  • Both phones have a 13 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, but the Lava Z81 offers a superior 13 MP selfie camera versus the 5 MP on the Archos.
  • Battery capacity is identical at 3000 mAh, but both lack fast charging and wireless charging.
  • The Archos runs on Android 7.0 Nougat, while the Lava Z81 benefits from a more recent Android 8.1 Oreo, providing a potentially improved software experience.
