Summary
- The HMD Aura 2 features a larger 6.52-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 576 x 1280 pixels, while the Meizu M3 Max has a 6.0-inch IPS LCD with a higher resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, resulting in a sharper image.
- In terms of performance, the Aura 2 is powered by a Unisoc SC9863A chipset with 4GB of RAM, compared to the Meizu's Mediatek MT6755 Helio P10 and 3GB of RAM, which may lead to better multitasking on the Aura 2.
- Both devices have a 13 MP rear camera, but the Meizu offers 1080p video recording, whereas the Aura 2's video capabilities are unspecified.
- The Aura 2 has a larger 5000 mAh battery, providing potentially longer usage time compared to the 4100 mAh battery of the M3 Max, which supports faster 24W charging.
- The Aura 2 runs on Android 14 (Go edition), offering a more current software experience than the Meizu's Android 6.0 with Flyme 5.2, which may impact app compatibility and user experience.
