The chap chuckled at how the Android phone had undeniable Apple features and said:

“Hey, can I copy your homework? Okay, but don’t make it obvious.”

Both phones have a strikingly similar appearance with three cameras and expanded screen sizes. South Africans were excited by the Hisense Enigma price of R1.5K and ran to the store to buy it.

The iPhone 14 Pro was around R25K, but it has since been priced down to R12K since new models have been produced over the years. While the two phones may look alike, their features and software are totally different.

Why you might choose the iPhone 14 Pro

One might save up money to purchase the iPhone 14 Pro for top-tier performance, camera quality, and longevity. The phone can take on demanding tasks like photo and video editing, gaming, and professional work.

The device offers a premium experience when it comes to the hardware and software. Those who seek higher resale value and longer support usually gravitate to Apple products.

Why you might choose the Hisense Enigma

People on a tight budget who need a smartphone for basic tasks such as social media, messaging, and light use might choose this device. The phone does not have the best camera quality or the fastest chip, which makes certain sites load more slowly.

If you’re okay with sacrificing premium features for a much lower price, then this device is perfect for you. The Hisense Enigma is a good spare phone for anyone who doesn’t need flagship features.
