Overall, display-wise both the phones are almost similar, but the tphone P features a metal unibody design which makes it a winner in this segment.

Processor, Memory, and Storage

The tphone P is powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 435 chipset with Adreno 505 GPU. In terms of memory, the tphone P packs 3GB of RAM and 32GB storage. Smartron also offers 100GB cloud storage as well, which should help distinguish the tphone P from its competitors, giving it an added advantage.

So, in terms of hardware, the tphone P is clearly a winner with octa-core processor and upgraded GPU. Moreover, the tphone P also offers 1000GB cloud storage which is a plus point for it.

Battery

The tphone 5 is again a clear winner in this department as well, and despite its much higher capacity, the battery can charge fully in about 3 hours.

Software and Performance
