HONOR 400 Pro vs HONOR Magic 5 Pro 5G

Our Verdict: Same maker, different budgets: the Magic 5 Pro 5G is the cheaper option and the 400 Pro the premium one. The Pro has the better camera on paper, 200MP versus 50MP, plus a 16MP selfie camera against 12MP, and the 5 Pro 5G has the sharper display at 460 PPI to 442. The Pro is the lighter phone at 205g against 219g. The Pro doesn't just win on price; it holds its own on specs too, which makes it the easy pick unless something specific draws you to the 5 Pro 5G.
