What CompareTab says about Alcatel Idol S vs POCO F9 Ultra

POCO F9 Ultra offers more RAM, storage, battery capacity and a smoother display than Idol S, with 12 GB of RAM versus 1 GB, 256 GB of storage versus 4 GB, a 8050 mAh battery versus 2000 mAh, and a 185 Hz display instead of 60 Hz. It also adds a higher-resolution rear camera (200 MP versus 8 MP), optical image stabilization on the main camera, an ultrawide rear camera, and 100W charging. Alcatel Idol S, however, is around $500 cheaper, lighter at 110 g versus 235 g, and thinner at 7.4 mm versus 8.74 mm. The choice comes down to F9 Ultra’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, battery capacity, and smoother display versus Idol S’s lower price and lighter, thinner build.
