Comparison review

The Huawei Mate X2 has a global score of 89.1, which is much better than the Samsung Galaxy S5's score of 80.8. Both phones we compare here have Android OS, but the Huawei Mate X2 has an older 10 version while Samsung Galaxy S5 has Android 4.4.2. The Huawei Mate X2 body has the same thickness than Samsung Galaxy S5, but it is notably heavier.

Samsung Galaxy S5 has a more vivid screen than Huawei Mate X2, because although it has a way worse 1920 x 1080 resolution and a really smaller screen, it also counts with a better pixels quantity per inch in the screen. Huawei Mate X2 features a way bigger storage capacity to store more games and applications than Galaxy S5, because although it has no SD card slot, it also counts with 256 GB internal storage capacity.

Huawei Mate X2 has a little faster processing unit than Galaxy S5, because although it has doesn't have an extra graphics processor, it also counts with a greater number of cores (and they are faster) and 5 GB more RAM. Huawei Mate X2 features a superior camera than Samsung Galaxy S5, and although they both have the same (4K) video definition and the same video frame rates, the Huawei Mate X2 also has a bigger aperture to take better captures and videos in poorly lited environments and a back facing camera with a much higher 50 mega pixels resolution.

The Huawei Mate X2 counts with a superior battery lifetime than Samsung Galaxy S5, because it has a 4500mAh battery capacity.

Although Huawei Mate X2 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Galaxy S5, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Galaxy S5. If you want to save some dollars, you can buy the Galaxy S5, and give up a couple features, but you will get the most out of your money.
