Summary
- The Meizu X8 features a larger 6.2-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1080 x 2220 pixels, offering a significantly sharper image compared to the Samsung I6500U Galaxy's 3.2-inch AMOLED display at 320 x 480 pixels.
- In terms of performance, the X8 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 chipset with up to 6GB of RAM, while the Galaxy relies on an 800 MHz CPU with only 180MB of RAM, resulting in vastly superior processing capabilities for the X8.

- The battery capacity of the X8 is 3210 mAh, which is more than double that of the Galaxy's 1500 mAh, providing longer usage time.
- Lastly, the X8 runs on Android 8.0 with Flyme UI, while the Galaxy operates on the much older Android 2.1, leading to a more modern software experience on the X8.
