Comparison: xiaomi mi3 vs jiayu g4

And with this article we are getting a little closer to the end of the clashes between the Xiaomi Mi3 with various devices on the market. And we do it with its direct competition, the Jiayu G4, a mid-range smartphone with excellent features that has nothing to envy to terminals of higher ranges and that has a very competitive price. But our Xiaomi Mi 3 does not give up, arriving with great force to the market covered by excellent specifications. Let us begin:

Screens: the Xiaomi with its 5 inches is larger than the Jiayu, which remains at 4.7 inches. Its resolutions are different: 1920 x 1080 pixels in the case of the Mi3 and 1280 x 720 pixels if we refer to the G4. Both phones are accompanied by IPS technology, so they have very vivid colors and a great viewing angle. The Jiayu G4 also has Gorilla Glass 2 accident protection and the Xiaomi has Gorilla Glass.

Processors: The Mi 3 features a 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 8274AB 4-core SoC and an Adreno 330 graphics chip. The Jiayu G4 features a 1.2GHz quad-core MediaTek MT6589 Turbo CPU and PowerVR SGX544MP GPU . The Xiaomi's RAM is 2 GB, while the Jiayu's is 1 GB, unless we are talking about the advanced model , which also incorporates 2 GB of RAM. The Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean operating system is present in the Jiayu, yes, personalized by the brand. The Xiaomi for its part has MIUI v5, based on Android 4.1 and internationally recognized for its high customization, efficiency and stability.

Camera: The rear camera of the Xiaomi has a resolution of 13 megapixels and a Sony Exmor RS sensor. And not only that, but it also has a dual Philips LED flash, which improves the intensity of the light by 30%, allowing higher shutter speeds. It has a 2-megapixel wide-angle backlit front camera. The Jiayu G4 for its part is composed of a CMOS sensor manufactured by Sony of 13 MP, so quality is guaranteed. As for the front lens, the Jiayu has 3 megapixels, more than ideal for making video calls or snapshots.

Batteries: the Xiaomi Mi3 has 3050 mAh, one of the highest capacities on the market. The Basic model of the Jiayu G4 has a 1850 mAh battery, although in the Advanced model its capacity will grow to 3000 mAh. In conclusion we can say that the autonomies of these models are of excellent appeal, especially for those who are prone to playing or watching many videos.

Internal Memories: while the Mi 3 has two models for sale, one of 16 GB and the other of 64 GB, the Basic and Advanced models of the Jiayu have 4 GB of ROM. The Xiaomi does not have a microSD card slot, while the Jiayu do, allowing it to expand its memories to 64 G B.

Connectivity: the two devices have basic connections well known to all of us, such as WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth or FM radio, without the 4G / LTE technology being present in any case.

Designs: Regarding size, the Xiaomi Mi3 is smaller, featuring 114 mm high x 72 mm wide x 8.1 mm thick. Especially surprising is the 8.1 mm thickness, as it is very thin considering the battery of this phone. Its body made of an aluminum-magnesium alloy together with its thermal film allows an ultra-thin design and better heat dissipation. The Jiayu G4 is 133mm tall x 65mm wide. Its thickness can be 8.2 mm or 10 mm depending on the model (already mentioned above), since it has different batteries, also varying its weight: from 162 grams to 180 grams. As for its back cover there is nothing to highlight: it is made of plastic, resistant and cheap, and it is also attached by a metal frame to the front of the terminal.

Availability and price: The general evaluation that we can make of the Xiaomi Mi3 is excellent. And is that, taking into account that its price ranges between € 299 for the 16GB model and € 380 for the 64GB model of internal memory, we have a battery and a camera on the phone that we do not find on Smartphone that double the price of East. That it does not have a memory card can put you back a little, but if you opt for the 16 GB model or, if you prefer, for the 64 GB version, you will have enough space to store thousands of photos, songs, programs, movies and series on your Xiaomi Mi3. The Jiayu G4 can be ours for a somewhat more expensive price and through its official website in Spain, where the Turbo model is available for 210 euros and its brother Advance for 265 euros.
