Summary

  • The Nokia 3.1 C features a 5.45-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, while the Samsung Galaxy A10e has a slightly larger 5.83-inch PLS LCD display at 720 x 1560 pixels, both offering similar pixel densities.
  • In terms of performance, the Nokia is powered by a Snapdragon 429 chipset with a quad-core CPU, whereas the Galaxy A10e utilizes an Exynos 7884 with an octa-core configuration, potentially providing better multitasking capabilities.
  • Both devices have an 8 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera, but the A10e's rear camera has a wider aperture (f/1.9 vs.
  • f/2.0), which may enhance low-light performance.
  • The A10e also has a marginally larger 3000 mAh battery compared to the 2990 mAh in the Nokia, though both lack fast charging.
  • Both run Android 9.0 (Pie), but the Galaxy A10e is upgradable to Android 11, offering a more current software experience.
  • The build quality of the A10e includes a glass front and plastic back, while the Nokia is entirely plastic, making the A10e potentially feel more premium.
