Summary
- The Gionee Ctrl V1 features a slightly larger 3.95-inch TFT display compared to the Vodafone Smart Mini's 3.5-inch screen, both with a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels.
- Performance-wise, both devices are equipped with a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 4GB of RAM, but the Vodafone has a Mediatek MT6575 chipset, which may offer marginally better efficiency.
- Camera specifications are identical, with both having a 2 MP rear camera and no front camera, though the Vodafone can record video at 480p@30fps.
- The Gionee has a 1700 mAh battery, while the Vodafone's capacity is unspecified, but both lack fast charging and wireless capabilities.
- In terms of software, the Gionee runs Android 4.0, whereas the Vodafone operates on a slightly newer Android 4.1, which may provide a better user experience.
- Build quality shows the Gionee is slightly bulkier and heavier than the Vodafone, which is more compact.
