Summary
- The Huawei P smart 2020 features a larger 6.21-inch IPS LCD display with a higher resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels compared to the Lenovo K5 Note's 5.5-inch display at 1080 x 1920 pixels, providing a sharper image.
- In terms of performance, the P smart is powered by the Kirin 710 chipset with 4GB RAM, offering better multitasking capabilities than the K5 Note's Mediatek MT6755 Helio P10 with 3GB or 4GB RAM options.
- Both phones have a 13 MP rear camera, but the P smart has a wider aperture of f/1.8, potentially improving low-light performance.
- The P smart's battery capacity is slightly lower at 3400 mAh compared to the K5 Note's 3500 mAh, but both lack fast charging.
- The P smart runs on Android 9.0 with EMUI 9.1, while the K5 Note operates on an older Android 5.1 version, resulting in a more modern software experience for the P smart.
- Build quality for both devices includes a glass front, but the P smart uses a plastic back and frame, whereas the K5 Note has an aluminum frame, giving it a different feel in hand.
