I’ve used a lot of phone. I’ve used a 48mp camera, that can’t even compare to the Samsung cameras! I don’t even like the Samsung camera, I’m just using it to make a point that specs aren’t everything.
I’ve used the nexus 4 and the iPhone 6. Everything about the iPhone is better, (excepting the customization). If you want to argue that specs on a phone are the only thing that matters, then you won’t make it far in life. How those specs are utilized with software are important.
Also take into account that just because 2 pieces of hardware have the same specs in one area, doesn’t mean they have the same specs in other areas. For instance a camera sensor is measured by more than just MP.
Also, even if two pieces of hardware have the same specs, one could be much higher quality, and be made much better.
I can make two 6 inch spoons, so that makes them both equally as good? No. There is much more to take into consideration. What material is it made of? How did I make each spoon? Etc. etc
