Design

The most interesting design and form factor are the ones of the OPPO Find N. Despite being a foldable phone, it is able to become extremely compact because it comes with smaller displays. Further, the 18:9 form factor for the external display makes it very beautiful. Last but not least, it has the best hinge ever seen on a foldable phone: a hinge that is able to hide the cease in the middle of the foldable panel like no other device does. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 becomes very interesting because it is the only waterproof foldable phone, thanks to the IPX8 certification.

 

Display

The Vivo X Fold has the widest internal display with a diagonal of 8.03 inches, while the OPPO Find N has the smallest one with 7.1 inches. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 sits in the middle with a 7.6-inch panel. In terms of image quality, these three displays are very similar. They all come with a 2K resolution, HDR certification, refresh rates up to 120 Hz, and very high brightness. When it comes to the external displays, the Vivo X Fold is more convincing on the paper, but the OPPO Find N has the most compact one with a diagonal of just 5.49 inches.

 

Specs & Software

The Vivo X Fold is the most advanced device of the trio when it comes to the hardware department, thanks to the presence of a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform paired with 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. Both the OPPO Find N and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 are fueled by a weaker Snapdragon 888, but they still offer 12 GB of RAM. The Vivo X Fold is also the only one with Android 12 out of the box, but the OPPO Find N has more advanced features to take advantage of the foldable form factor.

 

Camera

If you are looking for the most advanced camera, then you should opt for the Vivo X Fold without thinking twice. It is equipped with a quad camera including a 50 MP main sensor with OIS, an 8 MP periscope camera with 5x optical zoom, a 12 MP telephoto sensor with 2x optical zoom, and a 48 MP ultrawide lens, all with Carl Zeiss optics. Right after, we got the OPPO Find N with a triple camera including a 50 MP main sensor with OIS, a 13 MP telephoto camera, and a 16 MP ultrawide lens.

 

 

Battery

The Vivo X Fold is equipped with a bigger battery, but the OPPO Find N might last more in a lot of scenarios because of its smaller displays. The Vivo X Fold also comes with faster charging technology: 66W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.

 

Price

You need about €1300/$1405 to purchase the Vivo X Fold in China, the OPPO Find N costs €1070/$1157, and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 starts from €1650/$1784. If we consider the specs sheets, the Vivo X Fold is the best. But the OPPO Find N has a more interesting and useful form factor. Which one would you pick?
