Summary
- The Energizer Hardcase H242S features a 2.4-inch TFT LCD display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, while the Plum Wicked has a slightly larger 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen with the same resolution but lower pixel density.

- The camera on the H242S is limited to 0.3 MP for both rear and selfie shots, whereas the Plum Wicked offers a 2 MP rear camera, providing better photo quality.
- The H242S has a 1500 mAh battery, which is larger than the 1000 mAh battery found in the Plum Wicked, potentially offering longer usage time.
