Summary
- The Energizer Hardcase H500S features a 5.0-inch TFT display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in lower pixel density compared to the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active LTE, which offers a sharper 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution on the same screen size.
- In terms of performance, the Hardcase is powered by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz CPU, while the S4 Active utilizes a more powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 with a quad-core 2.3 GHz CPU, providing better overall speed and graphics performance.
- Both devices have a 13 MP rear camera, but the S4 Active can record video at 1080p, whereas the Hardcase is limited to 720p.
- The Hardcase has a 3000 mAh battery, slightly larger than the S4 Active's 2600 mAh, but both lack fast charging and wireless capabilities.
- Software-wise, the Hardcase runs on Android 7.0 Nougat, while the S4 Active operates on an older Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with TouchWiz UI, which may offer a less modern experience.
