Comparison review
The Xperia PRO is a little bit better than Galaxy S21 FE, with a 94.3 score against 89.1. Despite being the best device in this review, the Xperia PRO construction is older, thicker and a lot heavier than Galaxy S21 FE. Both devices we compare here include Android OS, but the Xperia PRO has the previous 10 version while Galaxy S21 FE has Android 11 version.
The Galaxy S21 FE and the Xperia PRO both count with very similar CPUs, and although the Xperia PRO has 2 GB more RAM memory, they both have the same number of cores. The Xperia PRO has a brighter display than Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, because it has a little larger screen, a lot more pixels per display inch and a way higher 1644 x 3840 resolution.
Xperia PRO counts with a way bigger memory capacity for applications and games than Galaxy S21 FE, because it has more internal storage capacity and a slot for an external memory card that admits up to 1 TB. The Galaxy S21 FE features just a bit better battery life than Sony Xperia PRO, because it has 4500mAh of battery capacity.
The Xperia PRO features a little bit better camera than Galaxy S21 FE, and although they both have the same 60 frames per second video frame rates, a back facing camera with a 12 megapixels resolution and the same 3840x2160 video resolution, the Xperia PRO also has a larger camera aperture to capture better low light images and videos.
Although Sony Xperia PRO is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE. So if you want that extra features, you can buy the Sony Xperia PRO, else you can save some money and buy the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, letting go some specs and features.
