Summary

  • The Energizer Hardcase H240S features a 2.4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, while the H280S has a slightly larger 2.8-inch TFT LCD display with the same resolution, resulting in a lower pixel density.
  • In terms of performance, the H240S is powered by a Mediatek MT6737M chipset with a quad-core CPU, offering better processing capabilities compared to the dual-core Spreadtrum SC9820E in the H280S.

  • Both models have the same battery capacity of 2000 mAh, but the H240S runs on Android 6.0, providing a more versatile software experience compared to the H280S, which operates on KaiOS 2.5.3.
  • Build-wise, both phones weigh the same at 256g, but the H280S is slightly slimmer and longer.
