Overall, both the phones are quite similar in their specifications, and both the phones are priced at the same rate. Not both the phones are perfect by all means, for example, both the phones are missing NFC and wireless charging. When the question arises “which phone to choose?” then the personal choice is the only factor that will matter in this comparison. Both the phones have similar processor and RAM and both runs on custom Android ROM that has many customisation options.
