Conclusion

After going through the comparative rundown of the specs of the two phablets, one can easily say that they both have almost everything in common. Evidently, there are minimal differences like the display quality where as Karbonn wins over Spice's TFT display with IPS screen. Another difference between the two devices is the internal storage capacity, where, again Spice looses with 8GB. Karbonn has offered 16GB internal storage to its Titanium S9 phablet.

However, given the price of both the handsets, both are equally powerful handsets when compared to other devices at the same price range. There is a difference of roughly Rs. 2,000 between the prices of the devices. One can compromise on the IPS display and 16 GB internal storage of the Karbonn Titanium S9 and buy Spice Pinnacle Stylus Mi-550 if their budget doesn't allow.
