Screen and design
Firstly, let’s start with the fact that when opened, both cell phones look very similar and have almost the same screen size, resolution and even brightness level.
However, it is on the external screen that there are noticeable differences, and we do not mean the characteristics, but the orientation of the screen and the usability of each, namely, in Oppo, it is practically a Mirror of the screen on which you can view and perform various applications as if you had you had a mini phone. Meanwhile, in the Galaxy Z Flip 5 we see a larger square screen, which, in truth, looks much better, but whose user experience can be strange and counterintuitive.
In addition, the crease on the Galaxy Z Flip 5 becomes much more noticeable when opening each smartphone. This is not a factor that affects use, but from an aesthetic point of view, it may matter for some users.
Another plus that stands out about the Oppo Find N3 Flip is the slider for switching between sound and vibration, yes, very similar to a typical iPhone button.
While the choice between one and the other depends on brand preference and even price and availability, we would say that in the screen and design section, we see the Oppo Find N3 excelling.
Cameras: the bigger the better
If we find several similarities on the screens, the photographic part is noticeably different. Apart from the results, the most noticeable difference is that the Oppo Find N3 has a telephoto lens that does a great job of zooming.
As for the results you’ll find in each folding camera, the Samsung’s is where you’ll find richer photos, very much in the South Korean style. With the Find N3 Flip, we noticed better color accuracy, especially in portrait mode.
When it comes to selfies, both foldable devices do a good job, but due to their size, each external screen offers a different preview experience.
Processing and battery
When it comes to processing, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 excels. Apps open faster and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 performs better than the Dimensity 9200 Find N3 Flip in technical tests. However, the truth is that in everyday use the differences will be subtle.
A noticeable difference lies in the autonomy of both smartphones, since their battery capacities differ significantly. Additionally, the Oppo Find N3 Flip offers much faster charging. However, if you value wireless charging, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 has a plus.
