Which should you buy?
The Galaxy S24 FE edges ahead on the Mars Score (63.3 vs 57.5), but the 5.8-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the Galaxy S24 FE if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are antutu, refresh rate, front camera, among others.
Pick the Xperia 10 VI if your top frustration with your current device is running out of charge before the day ends — endurance is the lead spec here. Its strongest claims are weight, wired charging, battery capacity, among others.
Both ship with comparable ram, 5g support, water resistance, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
