Summary
- The Nokia E90, released in 2007, features a compact build with a 4.0-inch TFT display at 800 x 352 pixels, while the Sony Xperia Z Ultra, launched in 2013, offers a larger 6.4-inch IPS LCD with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, providing superior clarity and color accuracy.
- In terms of performance, the E90 is powered by a 330 MHz CPU and 128MB of RAM, which is significantly lower than the Xperia Z Ultra's quad-core 2.2 GHz processor and 2GB of RAM, resulting in better multitasking and app performance on the latter.
- The camera capabilities also differ, with the E90 featuring a 3.15 MP rear camera compared to the Xperia's 8 MP, which supports 1080p video recording.
- Battery capacity is another contrast, as the E90 has a 1500 mAh battery, while the Xperia Z Ultra boasts a 3050 mAh battery, likely offering longer usage time.
- Lastly, the E90 runs on Symbian 9.2, which is less versatile than the Android 4.2 operating system of the Xperia Z Ultra, allowing for a broader range of applications and features.
