I beleive the Byakugan can only track chakra flow in relation throughout the body. The Sharingan gets a general sense of chakra flow throughout the body, but also in relation to the surrounding area, allowing the sharingan user to track movement. The Byakugan is specialized, but the Sharingan is much more generalized.
Spoiler for Manga:
So, I'm all for the Sharingan. |

Regarding Zabusa technique, as Hunter mentioned, it was that the Mist was so tick, that the visibility was basically brought down to 0, at this point neither Zabuza nor Kakashi could see anything at all, Zabuza had the advantage given he was specialize in killing trough this condition..

Well, anyone could tell if you're about to throw a punch just by looking at how your body is moving, i.e. seeing the opponent's balance shift to left leg when about to kick. It most definitely relies on individual skill. And, personally, I don't see why a Byakugan can't be used to predict movement.

Sharingan gives the ability to see and predict movements immediately without practice or experience. How well they react is a matter of reflexes like Rurik said. However, it's not simply seeing chakra and movements that gives the ability, but the way Sharingan can instantly interpret what it sees.

This is slightly off topic, but does anyone ever feel like the sharingan is like going super-saiyan?
super saiyan is the first form, then SS-2 when the second tomoe forms, then SS-3 with the third tomoe. THen the MS is super saiyan 4. I'm just sayin. |

Will the Sharingan gives you the ablility to either summon giant skeletons with doom swords, burn people with an neverending fire of doom or summon a blackhole at any point in time by blinking. Then again the byakugan does give you 360 degree vision.

While the argument can be made the Byakugan's power is based more in the present than the Sharigan, the results would be very similar. A 3 tomoe Sharingan creates a pre-image of what an opponent movement about to be based on chakra flow. It's a prediction yes but it's based on the whats happening. It's not like a Sharigan user would know I'm about to punch him until I begin the actual motions. The action has to already begun to have taken place and the Sharigan would automatically interpret what direction an attack is going. The Byakugan wouldn't have the instant interpretation at the level of a pre-image but the user would simply be aware that you're about to punch, even up to the point when you're gathering energy to attack and would be able to track movement because it's all visible to them within the radius. |

The Byakugan doesn't give its user any understanding of what goes on, that's actually what the Sharingan does and why it can break down jutsu and foresight Taijutsu among other things.
The Byakugan "only" provides unadulterated informations of all there is around its user. It can see that someone is gathering chakra in his hand but it can't analyze it and inform its user what jutsu it's about. It could be to make a Chidori, or chakra increased punch, or a Rasengan, or anything really. It can see chakra firing inside a body but it can't provide an analysis of what it means and a prediction of its result. Badically it's a better scanner but it doesn't possess the "software" to run and understand the informations it sees. |

Now the Byakugan can not only see chakra, but can even see the differences in chakra of different individuals. It seems chakra and the techniques used could be similar to a finger print Spoiler:

As for the punch, rasengan and chidori differentiation... the extent to which the flow in each of the techniques differs or any technique differs would determine the extent of how useful the information is. Whether or not someone can use the information meaningfully is also a another issue. |
