I am confused between the Canon EOS Rebel T6 1300D and the Nikon D3300. While the Canon has an in-built wireless it seems to be an inferior camera to the Nikon but they cost about the same.

Are these two cameras really as equivalent as the price suggests?

    \$\begingroup\$ Welcome to Photo.StackExchange Abdel. I fear this question will drive opinion-based answers and not really be answerable. Worse, it looks like you are asking a rhetorical question as you state your not interested in comparisons. Perhaps you could edit your question to make it more clear. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ See also this earlier discussion on a different X vs Y question for why we generally avoid this sort of thing. In this particular case, I think you're getting downvotes because the title sounds confrontational, and regardless of any agreement or disagreement, we really want to avoid the partisan my-brand-is-better squabbling common to many online camera forums. \$\endgroup\$

The Canon EOS Rebel T6 1300D has a smaller sensor (18 mega-pixels) than the Nikon D3300 (24 mega-pixels).

That is not the whole story. The Canon is a newer camera design with newer hardware. Canon designed it specifically for the entry level dSLR photographer. The Nikon D3300 is a three year old design and while still valuable (I use one) it does not have all of the newest features.

Its like trying to compare this year's Honda Accord with a four year old Jeep Compass because the dealer wants the same for both cars.

With DSLRs you are buying into a system You are comparing one element of each of the systems, however when adding lenses/flashes etc into the mix the result could be closer/swing the other way.

A reason someone could choose the on paper inferior camera is that they have friends/family with Canon gear that they would be able to share.
