HONOR 600 Lite vs Samsung Galaxy A27

Our Verdict: Comparing HONOR 600 Lite and Samsung Galaxy A27, the choice mostly comes down to portability versus display quality. The HONOR gives you its AMOLED panel, a higher-resolution 108MP rear camera, and a higher-resolution 16MP front camera, while the Samsung is more appealing for a sharper 385 PPI display and its Super AMOLED panel. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. Choose the HONOR for portability; choose the Samsung if display quality matters more.

The A27 is the cheaper one to own: around £357 over a typical contract, £94 less than the 600 Lite.
