Summary
- The Parla Sonic 3.5 and Plum Sync 3.5 both feature a 3.5-inch TFT display with identical resolutions, but the Plum Sync is slightly lighter and slimmer, enhancing its build quality.
- In terms of performance, the Plum Sync has a more advanced Mediatek MT6572M chipset and a dual-core CPU, compared to the Parla's Spreadtrum SC7710G and single-core CPU, which may offer better multitasking capabilities.
- The camera on the Parla Sonic is 2 MP, while the Plum Sync has a 1.3 MP rear camera and a 1.3 MP front camera, which provides a slight edge for selfies.
- The battery capacity of the Plum Sync is marginally higher at 1350 mAh compared to the Parla's 1300 mAh, but both lack fast charging and wireless capabilities.
- The software experience is similar, with the Plum Sync running a newer version of Android 4.2.2 compared to the Parla's 4.1.
