Samsung and Huawei have been duking it out in the premium 5G flagships segment with their Galaxy S series and HUAWEI Mate series respectively. With each launch of a new phone in either series, it is natural for comparisons to be drawn out between both to determine which one is better. Having said so, here we look at the new Samsung Galaxy S21+ vs. Huawei’s latest 5G flagship, the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro.

5G Performance

We live in an era where we do more using our smartphones, be it for working, staying in touch with the world around us or simply to entertain ourselves. In terms of performance, both of these flagships support 5G networks however, Huawei was the first smartphone manufacturer to equip its chipset – HUAWEI Kirin 9000 – with a 5G modem. Rest assured you would always get an impactful, high-speed experience for all your online activities be it streaming, downloading/uploading of bulk files, broadcasting, video conferencing or gaming. On the other hand, Samsung has decided to join the ride by doing the same on the Samsung Galaxy S21+ integrating its Exynos 2100 chipset with a 5G modem.

Design

No one wants to carry around a phone that looks like a brick! The HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro is not quite your ordinary slab of a smartphone. Fitted with an iconic and futuristic Space Ring design at the back, which not only serves as a functional purpose of holding the camera setup, but it also complements its colour finishing. Samsung’s Galaxy S21+ comes with an aluminium camera bump towards the upper left corner of the back that acts as a frame for the camera setup. Samsung Galaxy S21+ is also available in a number of colours, Pink, Violet, Black and Silver. Facing the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro you will notice the 6.76-inch, OLED HUAWEI Horizon Display with an 88-degree curve that does not only offer a wider and a more immersive visual experience but also goes a mile further with side-touch interactions such as virtual volume controls and joypad buttons. Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy S21+ comes with a 6.7 inches which also provides ample viewing space.

Cameras

Let us be honest, the camera is the first thing we all check out on a new phone. Understandably, they have evolved over the years to become an integral part of our lifestyle. Both Samsung and Huawei went all-out when it comes to cameras on their latest flagship models.

The HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro comes with the stellar Ultra Vision Cine Camera setup, t hat is designed for the all-scenario videography and photography. The Camera setup of the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro consists of a 50MP Super Sensing Wide Camera, a 20MP Ultra Wide Cine Camera, a 12MP Periscope Telephoto Camera that supports 5x optical zoom, 10x hybrid zoom and 50x digital zoom complete with a laser sensor for fast autofocus. On the other hand, Samsung has fitted the Galaxy S21+ with a triple camera setup that consists of a 12MP Wide-Angle Camera, 12 MP Ultra Wide Camera and a 64MP Telephoto Camera (with only 1.1x Optical zoom support).While Samsung’s setup is also good, you are quite limited when it comes to certain features that can really boost your videography experience. Basically, if you are gearing up to shoot your next video or vlog, you can leave all the expensive equipment behind and go ahead with your HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro instead. With Huawei’s flagship in hand you get a director like experience with features like real time HDR videos, Steady Shots for stabilization, Tracking Shots, Story Mode and more which all ensure you have more creative ways than ever when recording your videos.

Battery + Charging Speeds

The HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro comes with a large 4400 mAh battery that is supported by the 66W Wired HUAWEI SuperCharge. This delivers power at a rate more than twice as fast as the Samsung Galaxy S21+ 25W Fast Charging. It only takes you 30 minutes to fully charge the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro and you are all set! The Samsung Galaxy S21+ come with a larger battery at 4800 mAh but you are going to be slowed down by its charging time. Additionally, the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro supports 50W Wireless HUAWEI SuperCharge, delivering more than triple the power of the Samsung Galaxy S21+ 15W Wireless Charging.Best part is with the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro is you do not only get less charging time but you also get the charger in the box when you purchase the phone!

Futuristic and Innovative interactions

The HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro packs some cool and futuristic features such as AI Gesture Controls which allows you to control your phone without having to actually touch it. For instance, answer incoming calls, scrolling up/down pages and navigate from one side to the other – perfect when you are in the swimming pool and your hands are wet or dirty. Also, with the new EOD (Eyes On Display) feature, you can effortlessly reduce incoming call volume by just looking at your phone when it rings. The Samsung Galaxy S21+ does not come with features like these, which not only enrich the overall user experience but also makes using your phone so much fun.

You can connect the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro with a compatible HUAWEI MateBook laptops to initiate Multi-Screen Collaboration which does not only offer screen-streaming but acts as a virtual medium which allows easier control, drag and drop file transfer and even running multiple apps side by side in separate windows.

Verdict

Both flagships offer much in terms of performance and cameras. However, the battery efficiency and charging speeds of the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro are sure to blow minds away and the fact you do not have to purchase a charger separately unlike the case with the Samsung Galaxy S21+ make the HUAWEI Mate 40 Pro standout from the crowd. Together with its iconic design, solid performance and stellar camera make it the ultimate 5G flagship smartphone.
