Which should you buy?
The ThinkPhone edges ahead on the Mars Score (64.6 vs 57.5), but the 7.1-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the ThinkPhone if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are front camera, refresh rate, wired charging, among others.
Pick the Xperia 10 VI if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. Its strongest claims are weight, headphone jack.
Both ship with comparable battery capacity, ram, 5g support, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
