The itel S24 and itel P40 are both budget-friendly smartphones from itel aimed at price-conscious users. Let’s take a deeper look at how these two phones stack up against each other.
Design and Build
Both phones have a plastic build but the S24 has a slightly thicker profile of 8.3mm compared to the unnamed dimensions of the P40. The S24 is also heavier at 192g versus the P40’s unknown weight.
In terms of display size, the phones are identical at 6.6 inches. However, the S24 screen has a higher resolution of 720×1612 pixels and a 90Hz refresh rate over the 720×1612 screen on the P40.
Hardware and Performance
This is where the S24 establishes a clear lead. It draws power from the more powerful MediaTek Helio G91 Ultra chip compared to the lower-end Unisoc SC9863A on the P40.
The G91 Ultra is supported by up to 8GB RAM on the S24, giving it an edge in handling demanding tasks. In contrast, the P40 maxes out at 4GB RAM. Gaming and multitasking experiences will be markedly better on the S24.
Cameras
The S24 sports a single powerful 108MP main camera with f/1.6 aperture. The P40 settles for a dual 13MP + 0.3MP rear camera setup. On the front, the S24 has an 8MP selfie shooter vs the 5MP camera on the P40.
Overall photo and video capabilities are expected to be superior on the higher-res S24 sensor in different lighting conditions.
Display, Battery & Features
The S24 display is bigger at 6.6 inches and has a 90Hz refresh rate. The P40 display is identical in size but capped at 60Hz.
While the P40 gains in battery capacity at 6000mAh, the S24’s 5000mAh cell supports faster 18W charging.
The S24 also offers 128/256GB storage, microSD support, Google Mobile Services, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
Price & Availability
Pricing for the ITEL S24 starts around $120 vs the $100 price of the P40. Overall, the S24 provides a better value proposition considering its stronger hardware and features package.
So in summary, while the P40 seeks to undercut on price, the S24 emerges as the better-performing smartphone that’s still affordably priced.
