The market for foldable phones is expanding and introducing new innovations to smartphones. Samsung unveiled several new products to mark the formal end of their Galaxy Unpacked event. But, without a doubt, the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 stole the show.
Samsung’s latest Galaxy Z Fold 6 has several striking improvements in terms of technology, design, and other essential aspects that consumers look for in a folding phone. But now that Vivo has entered the foldable phone market with the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, Samsung isn’t the only company competing in this space.
Let’s examine how these gadgets stack up in terms of cost, camera quality, and display quality, so you can choose the foldable phone that best fits your needs.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Vs Vivo X Fold 3 Pro: Design And Display
The body of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is protected with Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Unfolded, it measures 5.6 mm thin and weighs 239 grams. Additionally, Samsung boasts that the smartphone has aluminum armor and an IP48 rating. Similar to previous Galaxy Z Folds, the rear still features a triple camera arrangement, although the camera rings are now somewhat larger. There are three color options available for the Galaxy Z Fold 6: Navy, Pink, and Silver Shadow.
The 7.6-inch foldable LTPO AMOLED display on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 boasts a peak brightness of 2600 nits and supports a refresh rate of 120 Hz in addition to HDR10+. Its external display is a 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED that can handle a refresh rate of 120 Hz. Its peak brightness is 1600 nits.
The thinnest foldable smartphone available in India, however, is the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro. When folded, it is 5.2 mm thin and weighs 236 grams. But in comparison to the Galaxy Z Flip 6, it is weaker. Regarding the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, it has an IPX8 rating alone and no mention of protection. There is just one color available: Celestial Black.
Greater size and brightness are available on the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro’s displays. It has an 8.03-inch foldable LTPO AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120 Hz, 10-bit color, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+ support. It also has a 6.53-inch AMOLED display with support for Dolby Vision, 120Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+. The maximum brightness of these two screens on the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro is 4500 nits.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Powered Performance
The most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 CPU powers both the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6. But Vivo’s top-tier model comes with additional features. The X Fold 3 Pro has 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6’s top model has 12GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.
Regarding software, both smartphones have UIs built on the most recent version of Android 14, which is 14. Samsung has the advantage in this case thanks to its well-known Galaxy AI, which offers tons of awesome AI features. Funtouch 14 OS, which powers the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, has some AI capabilities as well, though not as much as Galaxy AI.
Vivo’s Zeiss Edge Over Samsung
The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro must come with a camera. I have to admit that Vivo has come a long way with its camera, after all this time. With a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 64-megapixel Periscope Telephoto sensor, and a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens, the X Fold 3 Pro sports a Zeiss triple camera configuration. It boasts two 32-megapixel sensors—one on the foldable display and one on the outer display—for taking selfies and making video calls.
Nevertheless, based on the specs, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 has strong cameras as well, though not quite as good as the Vivo ones. In addition, it features three cameras: a 12-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 10-megapixel telephoto sensor, and a 50-megapixel primary camera. Its foldable display contains a 4-megapixel camera for selfies, while its outer display sports a 10-megapixel camera.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Vs Vivo X Fold 3 Pro: Final Verdict
With a 5000mAh battery, the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro can be charged up to 100 watts quickly, as well as 50 watts wirelessly and in reverse wired mode. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, on the other hand, has a 4400mAh battery that supports 25 watts of rapid charging, 15 watts of wireless charging, and 4.5 watts of reverse wired charging.
In theory, the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro appears to be a far superior device than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. Its battery, display, and camera are all better. But, more importantly, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 outperforms the X Fold 3 Pro in terms of software and build quality. The fact that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 starts at Rs 1,64,999 and the X Fold 3 Pro costs Rs 1,59,999 makes this comparison even more intriguing. Thus, this was the comparison between the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. For a more thorough analysis, visit our website.
