Summary
- The HTC Wildfire E3 lite features a slightly larger 6.52-inch IPS LCD display compared to the 6.5-inch PLS LCD of the Samsung Galaxy A02, both with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels and a 60Hz refresh rate.
- In terms of performance, the Wildfire E3 lite is powered by a Unisoc SC9863A chipset with an octa-core CPU, while the Galaxy A02 uses a Mediatek MT6739W with a quad-core CPU, indicating potentially better multitasking capabilities for the HTC model.
- Both phones have a dual rear camera setup with 13 MP main sensors, but the A02's f/1.9 aperture may offer better low-light performance than the E3 lite's f/2.2.
- Battery capacity is identical at 5000 mAh, but the Wildfire E3 lite supports 10W charging, whereas the A02 does not support any charging speed.
- Build quality is similar, with both devices using glass fronts and plastic backs, but the Galaxy A02 is lighter at 206g compared to the E3 lite's 218g.
- Finally, the Wildfire E3 lite runs on Android 12, while the Galaxy A02 originally launched with Android 10, though it is upgradable to Android 11.
