Damage resistant glass (such as Corning Gorilla Glass or Asahi Dragontrail Glass) is thin, lightweight, and can withstand high levels of force.

For example

The bigger the screen size is, the better the user experience.

Best

The device has a display with three full subpixels per pixel, resulting in a sharp and crisp picture. Pixels in some displays (like AMOLED) share one subpixel to preserve space. This can result in a less crisp, slightly blurred image.

For example

AMOLED displays, also known as active matrix OLED displays, offer higher refresh rates and consume less power than other types of displays.

For example

The graphics processing unit (GPU) has a higher clock speed.

Best

With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.

Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores in order to maximise performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximise battery life.

Out-of-order execution is used in CPUs to make use of instruction cycles that would normally be wasted due to delays.

For example

This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.

Optical image stabilization uses gyroscopic sensors to detect the vibrations of the camera. The lens adjusts the optical path accordingly, ensuring that any type of motion blur is corrected before the sensor captures the image.

A laser autofocus system quickly determines the depth of the subject you want to focus on, allowing you to take photos much faster.

The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.

Best

A dual-lens camera captures two images and overlays them. This technology creates sharper images, especially in low light conditions, and allows you to use effects such as softening the background.

Best

Devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better experience.

With a standard mini jack socket, you can use the device with most headphones.

For example

More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.

Best

It works as an FM radio with included headsets

The music player can be blindly used.

The device's battery life (when in use) as given by the manufacturer. With a longer battery life you have to charge the device less often.

Best

The device can save battery by using just a black-and-white screen with a few basic icons. This means even with a small amount of battery, you can keep the device running for a long time.

For example

The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.

For example

The manufacturer offers a branded wireless charging kit. To charge the device, you simply put it down on its charging base.

Fast charging technologies, like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge or MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to reduce the time it takes to charge a device. For example, with Quick Charge 3.0, the battery can be charged to 50% in just 30 minutes.

Offline voice recognition enables you to perform voice actions, like dictating texts or using various voice commands, without an internet connection.

Anyone is free to use, copy, study, and change the software in any way, and the source code is openly shared so that people are encouraged to voluntarily improve the design of the software.

If an app has sharing capabilities and the developers have indicated it, the app will automatically appear in your list of sharing options. Some OS’s limit direct sharing options to a select few apps, which means you have to open apps separately in order to upload the files you want to share.
