Summary
- The Samsung M715 T*OMNIA II features a 3.7-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, while the Samsung Mesmerize i500 has a slightly larger 4.0-inch Super AMOLED display with the same resolution, resulting in a lower pixel density.
- In terms of performance, the Mesmerize i500 is equipped with a Hummingbird chipset, a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A8 CPU, and 2GB of RAM, offering a more capable experience compared to the M715, which lacks specified performance metrics.
- Both devices have a 5 MP rear camera, but the Mesmerize supports 720p video recording, whereas the M715 does not specify video capabilities.
- They share the same battery capacity of 1500mAh, but the Mesmerize i500 benefits from a more modern Android 2.1 OS, upgradeable to 2.2, while the M715 runs on Windows Mobile 6.5.
- The build quality of the Mesmerize is slightly lighter and thinner, contributing to a more modern feel compared to the bulkier M715.
