Last year, two super smartphones got released and they are the HTC One M7 and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra. On the outside, both devices are a beauty but when it comes to performance, there can only be one beast. Check out our comparison on both smartphones.
In terms of display, The Z Ultra is so much larger than the One M7. Its 6.4” screen is able to produce 342ppi, which is impressive for its size. However, it is still not as sharp as the 468ppi produced by the One M7’s 4.7” screen.
While the Z Ultra might be equipped with a larger 3,050mAh battery, the huge display turns out to be a power burden for the device. The One M7’s 2,300mAh battery is able to last longer than its counterpart.
Performance-wise, the Z Ultra managed to speed past the One M7 by a hair. The phablet runs on a 2.2GHz Snapdragon 800 processor with 2GB RAM and Adreno 330 GPU. The One M7 is only packed with a 1.7GHz 4-core processor with 2GB RAM.
When it comes to cameras, the One M7 has a 4MP rear camera and a 2.1MP front shooter. The Z Ultra is equipped with an 8MP rear camera and 2MP front shooter.
In this tight contest, it seems that the HTC One M7 is the winner. Specs-wise, it is one step behind the Sony Xperia Z Ultra but the fact that it is perfectly sized and runs on the Sense UI makes it the better choice.
