Summary
- The HTC Touch features a 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, while the MWg UBiQUiO 501 has a slightly smaller 2.5-inch display but maintains the same resolution, resulting in a higher pixel density of approximately 160 ppi.
- Both devices are powered by a 200 MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU, but the UBiQUiO 501 utilizes the TI OMAP 750 chipset, which may offer marginally better performance.
- They both sport a 2 MP rear camera with video capabilities but lack optical image stabilization and front-facing cameras.
- The UBiQUiO 501 has a larger battery capacity at 1250 mAh compared to the HTC Touch's 1100 mAh, potentially offering better longevity.
- Both run on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional, providing a similar software experience, but the HTC Touch has a slight edge in build dimensions and weight, being more compact and lighter.
