Comparison review
The Sony Xperia 1 III has an overall score of 93.3, which is way better than the Galaxy A02s's 74.5 global score. Both of these devices include the same Android 11 OS (operating system), so both should provide the user the same OS features. The Sony Xperia 1 III is a somewhat thinner and just a little lighter cellphone than the Galaxy A02s, although both were only released 6 months apart.
The Xperia 1 III features a bit more powerful processor than Galaxy A02s, and although they both have the same number of cores, the Xperia 1 III also has a higher amount of RAM memory. Sony Xperia 1 III features a much more vibrant screen than Galaxy A02s, and although they both have a display with the same size, the Sony Xperia 1 III also has a lot better count of pixels per inch in the display and a much higher 1644 x 3840 pixels resolution.
Sony Xperia 1 III features a way bigger memory capacity to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy A02s, and although they both have a slot for external memory cards that allows a maximum of 1 TB, the Sony Xperia 1 III also has 224 GB more internal storage capacity.
Sony Xperia 1 III takes much clearer videos and photos than Samsung Galaxy A02s, because although it has a worse resolution back facing camera, it also counts with a lot bigger diafragm aperture to take better low-light images and videos and a lot better 3840x2160 video quality. The Galaxy A02s counts with a bit superior battery performance than Sony Xperia 1 III, because it has a 5000mAh battery capacity against 4500mAh.
Although Xperia 1 III is a better device, it costs a lot more money than Galaxy A02s, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Galaxy A02s. So if you need that extra specs and features, you can buy the Xperia 1 III, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Galaxy A02s, letting go some features and specifications.
