Summary
- The Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus features a glass front with an aluminum/plastic back, while the OnePlus X has a more premium build with Gorilla Glass 3 on both the front and back, along with an aluminum frame, making it slightly lighter and thinner.
- Both phones have a 5.0-inch display with a 1080 x 1920 resolution, but the OnePlus X utilizes AMOLED technology, which typically offers better contrast and color vibrancy compared to the IPS LCD of the K5 Plus.
- In terms of performance, the OnePlus X is powered by the Snapdragon 801 chipset, which generally provides superior processing power compared to the Snapdragon 616 in the K5 Plus.
- Camera capabilities are similar with both having a 13 MP rear camera, but the OnePlus X has a higher resolution 8 MP front camera compared to the 5 MP on the K5 Plus.
- The K5 Plus has a slightly larger 2750 mAh battery versus the 2525 mAh in the OnePlus X, but both lack fast charging and wireless charging.
