With just a 350,000 dong difference, we're presented with two tantalizing options from Vinsmart: Star 5 and Joy 4. So, if you have around 3 million dong to spare, which handset should you go for? Dive into this article to find out!
What Makes Vsmart Joy 4 Stand Out?

Positioned as the superior line, Vsmart Joy 4 boasts several strengths over Star 5, spanning from its specifications to display and camera features.
Joy 4 boasts a more powerful configuration with Snapdragon 665, 3 GB RAM, and 64 GB internal memory, compared to Star 5's Helio G35, 3 GB RAM, and 32 GB internal memory. Both devices share the same 5,000 mAh battery capacity.

The display is another area where Joy 4 outshines Star 5, featuring a Full HD+ panel instead of just HD+. In the same 6.5-inch size, the display on Joy 4 offers superior sharpness and detail.
In terms of camera, Vsmart Joy 4 also excels in both quantity and quality with a quad-camera setup of 16 + 8 + 2 + 2 MP on the rear and a 13 MP selfie camera, compared to Star 5's triple-camera setup of 13 + 2 + 2 MP and an 8 MP selfie camera.

The matte finish on the back of Joy 4 exudes more elegance compared to the scratched surface of Star 5, and even the seam between the screen and the frame on Joy 4 is more seamless.
What Makes Vsmart Star 5 Worth Considering?

It might seem like Vsmart Joy 4 has completely overshadowed Star 5! However, it's not necessarily the case. Star 5 also boasts its own unique strengths.
First and foremost is the price. At Mytour, Vsmart Star 5 is priced at 2.69 million dong, which is 350,000 dong cheaper than Vsmart Joy 4 (priced at 3.04 million dong).

For phones in the tens of millions price range, 350,000 dong might not be a big deal. But for phones in the 2 - 3 million dong range, a difference of 350,000 dong is worth considering.
The next noteworthy point is the complimentary gift that comes with purchasing Star 5. It's a free data package (10 GB/month) for 18 months, provided via Vinaphone's vSIM.

This is an extremely beneficial feature for users, considering free Wi-Fi is not available everywhere. Additionally, with vSIM, Star 5 doesn't require an extra SIM slot for using mobile data.
Summing It Up
From its name alone, it's evident that Joy 4 will naturally outperform Star 5 in terms of hardware.
However, one must ponder whether, in the 2 - 3 million dong price segment, people prioritize performance differences so much. Or is saving money and getting a free data gift more significant?
