HONOR 400 Smart vs Samsung Galaxy S24+

Our Verdict: Comparing Samsung Galaxy S24+ and HONOR 400 Smart, the choice mostly comes down to display quality versus battery size. The Samsung gives you a sharper 509 PPI display, its Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X panel, and a higher-resolution 12MP front camera, while the HONOR is more appealing for a larger 6,500 mAh battery and its IP64 dust tight and water resistant (water splashes) rating. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. Choose the Samsung for display quality; choose the HONOR if battery size matters more.

Over a full contract, the 400 Smart works out around £714 all-in, about £184 less than the S24+.
