Summary
- The Cubot Note 8 features a larger 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 442 x 960 pixels, providing a higher pixel density compared to the Nokia N85's 2.6-inch AMOLED display at 240 x 320 pixels.
- In terms of performance, the Note 8 is powered by a Mediatek MT6739WW chipset with a quad-core CPU, while the N85 has a much older 369 MHz ARM 11 processor, resulting in significantly better performance for the Note 8.
