Which should you buy?
The X Fold 3 Pro is the clear pick on raw spec strength, leading by 9.9 points on the Mars Score. The margin is wide enough that the underdog only makes sense if its individual strengths line up with what you specifically need.
Pick the Nord CE 4 if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. The biggest gaps in its favor are weight.
Pick the X Fold 3 Pro if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. Its strongest claims are antutu, ram, front camera, among others.
Both ship with comparable main camera, refresh rate, 5g support, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
Bottom line: the X Fold 3 Pro is the safer default. The other model is the right choice only when its specific advantages line up with your priorities.
