Phablets are really trending nowadays and many customers look for a nice and comfortable tablet in mid range price bracket and there are some decent options available including lumia 1320, xperia t2 Ultra, grand 2 and many more! But it is really hard to choose one, so i am here to tell which is the best mid range phablet that will be a head to head comparision between the nokia lumia 1320 and the sony xperia t2 Ultra! Grand 2 is not that capable and lags too much so we are not going to include that! So let us begin!
DESIGN.
Nokia has been a little unimaginative with the looks of Lumia 1320. Basically, it looks like an oversized Lumia 625. It has the same curvy body as Lumia 625 and seems merely bigger in size; if you looked at the two models from afar, you will probably not be able to tell the two apart.
The big screen makes the phablet too big to handle. Though the curved body helps the handset slip into the pocket easily, it is a little difficult to hold because of the considerable width (3.4-inch). It is quite heavy too, weighing over 200gram.
T2 Ultra follows the same design pattern that Sony is using in high-end range of Z smartphones. It is a sleek, slim and good looking device. The difference between T2 Ultra and other high-end Sony smartphones is the build material. The high-end devices like Xperia Z1 use metal body and a glass back cover. T2 Ultra has a plastic shell, albeit the one that is so glossy that it looks like glass. But the build quality and finishing is top notch. There are no loose parts and the device doesn't look or feel cheap. Another difference is that unlike high-end Xperia devices, T2 Ultra doesn't have water or dust resistant body.
T2 Ultra is just 7.7mm thick and weighs little over 170 grams. For a phablet, these figures are very impressive. The slim and sleek design makes using T2 Ultra easier even though it is a large device.
The winner here is actually and surprisingly the xperia t2 ultra with its much comfortable and a little less heavier and good looking design!
DISPLAY.
The display on actually both the phones is the same that is 720p resolution with the same pixel density! The edge here actually goes to the lumia 1320 with its clear black display with really nice outdoor visibility and colour reproduction! The screen of the xperia t2 ultra is actually really reflective and has bad outdoor visibility and looks really dull!
So the winner here is the nokia lumia 1320!
SOFTWARE.
The xperia t2 ultra runs the android jellybean 4.3 with the sony's custom UI whereas the nokia lumia 1320 runs on windows phone 8 GDR3 update!
The edge here goes to the lumia 1320 as the software of the lumia 1320 makes much more use of the 6inch screen and the live tiles look really eye catchy and vibrant!
Software updates will most probably come first the nokia lumia 1320 and t2 ultra will lag behind in android updates!
The winner here is the lumia 1320 which gives you a much smoother experience of the software!
CAMERA.
When we talk about the camera, you would probably think it is the nokia phone but the case here is totally different!
The 13MP camera of the sony xperia t2 ultra smashes the 5MP camera of the nokia lumia 1320!
The camera on the nokia lumia 1320 performs under average and the camera on the sony xperia t2 ultra performs decent!
Don't expect good quality photos from the xperia t2 ultra as they are not that great in spite of the 13mp shooter!
So the winner in this category is the sony xperia t2 ultra!
BATTERY LIFE.
When we talk about the battery life in this case, it is really great on both the phones! The nokia lumia 1320 comprises of a 3400mAH non removable bettery whereas the xperia t2 ultra has a non removable 3000mAH battery!
Both the batteries are fantastic and can run for about 2 days on moderate usage! But we have to decide a winner and it is the nokia lumia 1320!
The nokia lumia 1320 can run a little more longer even if you turn the brightness to maximum!
PERFORMANCE.
Performance is actually average on both!
The nokia lumia 1320 is Powered by the dual-core 1.7GHz Snapdragon S4 chipset with 1GB RAM and the xperia t2 ultra is powered by Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor. If you are interested, it is a variant of MSM8228 processor. The four cores of the processor use A7 ARM architecture, which is meant to be used in mainstream devices. The cores run at 1.4GHz. T2 Ultra has 1GB RAM!
When we look at the specifications, the xperia t2 ultra is a clear winner but we use it, the case is opposite actually!
The android operating system requires a much more high processing unit to run smoothly whereas windows phone can run perfectly on dual cores! So you are going to face some lags on the sony xperia t2 ultra and on the nokia lumia 1320, they are absouletly no lags at all!
Gaming is decent on both the phones, but when you compare them head to head, it is the nokia lumia 1320 that performs much more faster!
So, the winner here is the nokia lumia 1320 with a lag free experience!
TO SUM UP..
Both the phones are mid budget phones and are average in every aspect!But i would actually prefer the nokia lumia 1320 with a much more capable enrivonment and a little cheaper too! Sony xperia t2 ultra is right now a little over priced for what it is offering! If you really want a android in that range, i would suggest to increase your budget and go for the lg g pro!

ReplyDeleteIts Awesome phone.
I tried lumia 1320 and felt too heavy and big in hand.
I know, but it is little costly! I recommended that phone in the end though!
