Summary
- The Blackview BV4900 features a slightly larger 5.7-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, while the Ulefone Armor X3 has a 5.5-inch display with the same resolution but a higher pixel density.

- Both phones have an 8 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, but the Armor X3 has a wider aperture of f/1.8, potentially offering better low-light performance.
- The BV4900 has a larger 5580 mAh battery compared to the 5000 mAh in the Armor X3, but the latter supports faster 10W charging.
- In terms of software, the BV4900 runs on Android 10, while the Armor X3 operates on an older Android 9.0 (Pie), which may affect the user experience and access to newer features.
