Summary

  • The BLU Vivo IV features a larger 5.0-inch Super AMOLED display with a higher resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, offering better pixel density compared to the 4.8-inch Super Clear LCD of the Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 GC200, which has a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels.
  • In terms of performance, the Vivo IV is powered by an octa-core processor with 2GB of RAM, while the Galaxy Camera 2 has a quad-core CPU with 2GB of RAM, indicating potentially better multitasking on the Vivo IV.
  • The camera capabilities differ significantly, with the Vivo IV having a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP selfie camera, whereas the Galaxy Camera 2 boasts a 16.3 MP rear camera with 21x optical zoom but lacks a front-facing camera.
  • Battery capacity is slightly higher in the Galaxy Camera 2 at 2000 mAh compared to the Vivo IV's 2300 mAh, although both lack fast charging and wireless capabilities.
  • Both devices run on older versions of Android, with the Vivo IV on 4.2.2 (upgradable to 4.4.2) and the Galaxy Camera 2 on 4.3, but the latter features Samsung's TouchWiz UI for a different software experience.
