Summary

  • The Gigabyte GSmart Guru (White Edition) features a higher resolution 5.0" IPS LCD display at 1080 x 1920 pixels, compared to the Meizu M5c's 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in sharper visuals.
  • In terms of performance, the Guru is equipped with a Mediatek MT6589T chipset and a faster 1.5 GHz CPU, while the M5c has a Mediatek MT6737 with a 1.3 GHz CPU, leading to better overall processing capabilities in the Guru.
  • The camera on the Guru is superior with a 13 MP rear sensor versus the M5c's 8 MP, although both have 5 MP front cameras.
  • Both devices have the same 3000 mAh battery capacity, but the Guru's older software, Android 4.2.2, may not provide as smooth an experience as the M5c's Android 6.0 with Flyme 6.
  • In terms of build quality, the Guru is slightly heavier at 165g compared to the M5c's 135g, with both having similar dimensions.
