Tesla is working on a powerful smartphone, and there are plenty of indications that the device will be comparable to the top ones from Samsung, Apple, Huawei, OnePlus, and so on. Known as the Tesla Phone Pi or Tesla Phone Model Pi, the upcoming smartphone will be carrying some super advanced features that will make people craving for it.
Imagine a world where smartphone batteries never run out of power or where the age-old problem of “no signal” doesn’t exist anymore. That’s a world that the upcoming Tesla Phone Pi offers, along with other impressive specs.
But how would the Tesla Phone Pi compete in the face of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 that the famous South Korean giant released back in August? Samsung’s device is also pretty revolutionizing due to its design – a foldable display that makes the phone itself smaller when needed and able to fit better in a pocket.
Based on the rumored specs of the Tesla Phone Pi, let’s find out if the device will be better than what the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 has to offer:
Display: a tight battle
It’s impossible to say if Samsung’s phone has a better display than that of the Tesla Phone Pi or vice versa, as it depends on what users want. Both screens are of high quality. If you’re looking for a compact and Foldable Dynamic AMOLED display of 6.7 inches, 120Hz for the refresh rate, and HDR10+, it means that you should definitely opt for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4. The upcoming phone from Tesla doesn’t have that folding quality.
On the other hand, if you’re not impressed by the display of Samsung’s phone, it becomes a lot more justified to choose Tesla Phone Pi. The upcoming phone of Elon Musk’s company should be featuring a refresh rate of 144Hz and 1500 nits for its brightness. A Super AMOLED display that peaks at 1500 nits is embedded into the device.
Cameras: Tesla wins
The upcoming phone from Tesla holds a rear camera setup that consists of a 109MP (f/1.9) Main Wide lens, two 50MP lenses (the P. Telephoto at f/3.4, as well as the Ultrawide at f/1.8), and the 5MP Macro lens at f/1.8. The phone’s rear camera setup is also capable of recording video up to 8K@30fps.
The main camera of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 consists of a dual-lens setup on the rear – a wide and an ultrawide lens, each of them reaching 12MP. The camera setup can record video up to 4K quality.
Even the front camera of Tesla’s phone is impressive, as it reaches 48MP at f/2.2 and it’s capable to record video up to 4K. On the other hand, the selfie camera mounted on the Galaxy Z Flip4 is able of only 10MP photos and also video recording up to 4K quality.
Price
Tesla Phone Pi will cost around $800, while you can buy the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 at about $699. Both prices are reasonable for what the two phones are capable of, and purchasing either one of them is indeed a great deal. Apart from the specs already mentioned, both Tesla Phone Pi and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 are capable of water resistance, a lot of processing power due to the presence of the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 (4nm) chipset, and a lot more.
Conclusion
In a nutshell, Tesla Phone Pi is the better phone. But if you are too impressed by the unique display of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4, you should buy that phone.
