no they won't be the same
the answer is in your question ..
stripped version - will not have debugging symbols, symbol table
unstripped version - will have all the necessary information to debug on a core or to debug a running process
stripped version - would be helpful ( not always and it is subjective ) when binary needs to be transferred to another host for execution, run test for batch builds something of that kind

strip(1) User Commands strip(1)
NAME
strip - strip symbol table, debugging and line number information from an object file
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ccs/bin/strip [-lVx] file...
DESCRIPTION
The strip command removes the symbol table SHT_SYMTAB and its associated string table, debugging information, and line number information
from ELF object files. That is, besides the symbol table and associated string table, the following sections are removed:
.line
.debug*
.stab*
Once this stripping process has been done, limited symbolic debugging access is available for that file. Therefore, this command is nor-
mally run only on production modules that have been debugged and tested.
If strip is executed on a common archive file (see ar.h(3HEAD)) in addition to processing the members, strip will remove the archive symbol
table. The archive symbol table must be restored by executing the ar(1) command with the -s option before the archive can be linked by the
ld(1) command. strip will produce appropriate warning messages when this situation arises.
strip is used to reduce the file storage overhead taken by the object file.
OPTIONS
The amount of information stripped from the ELF object file can be controlled by using any of the following options:
-l Strip line number information only.Does not strip the symbol table or debugging information.
-V Prints, on standard error, the version number of strip.
-x Does not strip the symbol table. Debugging and line number information may be stripped.
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
file A path name referring to an executable file.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See environ(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of strip: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MES-
SAGES, and NLSPATH.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
FILES
/tmp/strp* Temporary files
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Availability |SUNWbtool |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Interface Stability |Standard |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
SEE ALSO
ar(1), as(1), ld(1), elf(3ELF), tmpnam(3C), a.out(4), ar.h(3HEAD), attributes(5), environ(5), standards(5)
NOTES
The symbol table section will not be removed if it is contained within a segment or if the file is a relocatable object.
The line number and debugging sections will not be removed if they are contained within a segment or if their associated relocation section
is contained within a segment.
