Galaxy Fold vs. Mate X: How to compare Samsung and Huawei folding screens

Samsung’s folding screen phone, Galaxy Fold, has finally competed. Huawei introduced his screened mobile phone to MWC 2019 in Barcelona, ​​Mate X.

Both smartphones are turned into a tablet and have 5G technology. Salty prices make it inaccessible to many of us while the similarities go beyond cost.

Galaxy Fold has a small screen on the outside and large screen on the inside while Mate X has a single screen. The Samsung phone has six cameras and comes with 4G and 5G. Mate X has four cameras and 5G on board.

Folded Galaxy Fold is not flat while Mate X is, thanks to a sophisticated shaft.

The folding screen

Does it fold from inside or outside? Galaxy Fold takes the form of a book thanks to the large screen in the interior. One of the covers also has a screen on it that makes the tablet even like a smartphone.

Huawei has chosen a reverse approach. The screen collapses from the outside and the left frame is fired from the screen. The advantage in this middle is because you have a screen that behaves as three depending on how you keep your phone.

Galaxy Fold Screen

• 6-inch external
• 3-inch internal

Mate X Screen

• 8-inch OLED
• 6-inch front
• 38-inch rear

“Notch” or side by side

Galaxy Fold has a “notch” in a sizeable size on the 7.3-inch screen. This space contains two cameras and sensors that have a normal phone or tablet. The 8-inch display of Mate X does not have a “notch” but has a strap on the backside where the cameras line up.

This strap is raised so as to help keep the tablet but also stabilize it when it’s open.

But the durability of the screen? The glass technology has not reached the point where it can be completely folded and not broken. For this Huawei has used polymer on the display panel.

Camera

Samsung has a full set of six cameras in the Galaxy Fold, three on the back, three on the front and one on the cover where the second screen is. This configuration is somewhat confusing because every time you make a photo you need to know which camera to choose.

But how does it compare to the camera of Mate X? At first glance it looks like there are only three but CEO of Huawei Richard Yu said they are four.

4G or 5G

Huawei Mate X comes with a configuration: 5G. In fact, Huawei says it is the world’s fastest-ever foldable phone. Samsung on the other hand has set 4G and 5G.
