With IPS technology, the display of the Sony smartphone should offer wider viewing angle and with added scratch resistant cover, the Sony Xperia E4g Dual has definitely an over the Samsung handset.

The Sony Xperia E4g Dual has a faster processor but if storage is a concern, the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime is the one to go for.

The Sony Xperia E4g Dual too has two SIM slots and offers 4G, GPS (A-GPS, GLONASS), Bluetooth 4.1.1, WiFi, WiFi Direct, and WiFi Hotspot.

Unless NFC is something you use (hardly useful in India as we can’t use it for Google Pay etc.), this round is a draw from our side.

Conclusion

The Sony might have a better screen and processor but it loses lots of points for having a low end camera (in terms of resolution) and due to the old OS – two very important aspects. Thus the Samsung smartphone seems a better choice.
