- The Maxwest Orbit Z50 features a 5.0-inch LED-backlit IPS LCD display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, while the Philips W832 has a slightly smaller 4.5-inch IPS LCD with the same resolution, resulting in a higher pixel density.

- Both devices have an 8 MP rear camera, but the W832 lacks a front-facing camera, whereas the Orbit Z50 includes a 2 MP selfie camera.
- The Orbit Z50 has a 2000 mAh battery, while the W832 offers a larger 2400 mAh capacity, potentially providing longer usage.
- Both run older versions of Android, with the Orbit Z50 on Android 4.1.2 and the W832 on Android 4.0, which may affect the software experience and app compatibility.
