Summary
- The Emporia Flip Basic features a slightly larger 2.4-inch TFT display compared to the Siemens SX1's 2.2-inch TFD screen, both with the same resolution of 176 x 220 pixels.
- In terms of performance, the Emporia is powered by a Mediatek MT6260M chipset with a 360 MHz CPU, while the Siemens uses a TI OMAP 310 with a 120 MHz ARM9 CPU, resulting in better performance for the Emporia.
- Both devices have a rear camera with no significant capabilities, but the Siemens SX1 can record video, which the Emporia cannot.
- The Emporia's battery capacity is 1020 mAh, slightly higher than the Siemens' 1000 mAh, contributing to potentially longer usage.
- The Emporia runs on a simpler software experience without a specified OS, while the Siemens operates on Symbian 6.1, providing a more structured interface.
- Build quality differs as well, with the Emporia being lighter at 82g and more compact, whereas the Siemens is bulkier at 116g and larger dimensions.
