But that is not all. They also share the same battery capacity and charging technology. They are both 4G smartphones and are available in single and dual SIM options. As far as definitions go, Nokia 3.4 and Nokia 5.4 can be classified as identical twins. They share enough DNA to qualify for that. But even identical twins have unique traits that differentiate them. And this is the case with these two smartphones.
Nokia 3.4 vs Nokia 5.4: The Differences
I have spelt out the similarities between these two phones. What of the differences? They differ in five key areas: processor, RAM, internal storage, cameras, and back panel. And from the naming scheme, you can safely assume which model is the better equipped of the two. The Nokia 5.4 is a Nokia 3.4 with a more capable processor, bigger RAM options, bigger storage options, better front and rear cameras, and a different back panel. Let’s get into the details with our trusty comparison table.
Nokia 3.4 vs Nokia 5.4: Quick Specs Comparison
To break it down, the Nokia 3.4 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, while the 5.4 has a Snapdragon 662 processor. The processor is like the engine room of a phone. The more powerful the processor, the more powerful the phone. What of RAM? RAM is the part of the memory of the phone that is used to open and run apps. If you love to switch between apps a lot, go with more RAM. Nokia 3.4 offers two memory variants – 3 GB RAM + 32 GB storage, and 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage. Nokia 5.4, on the other hand, is available in most countries in one trim variants – with 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. This may be different in your country. The selfie camera on the Nokia 3.4 is an 8-megapixel snapper, while the 5.4 doubles that to 16 megapixels. At the back, the 3.4 has a triple camera made up of a 13-megapixel main lens, 5-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. The Nokia 5.4 has a quad camera configuration made up of a 48-megapixel main lens, a 5-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens, a 2-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. Both have LED flash for night photography. The back panels of both devices have a striking difference. That of the Nokia 3.4 has a diagonally grooved texture that makes for an easier grip in the hand. You will not have to worry about the phone slipping off a surface easily. But the back panel of the Nokia 5.4 is smooth and slippery, like glass. It isn’t glass though; it is plastic, but it feels and acts like glass. It is a more premium look and feel, but the device is more likely to slip out of your hand or off an inclined surface.
Nokia 3.4 vs Nokia 5.4: In Summary
Nokia 5.4 has a more powerful processor, more RAM, more storage, better cameras, and a more premium back panel than the 3.4 has. In practical terms, with the 5.4 you get better smartphone performance, shoot better pictures, record better videos, and a more premium look.
