HONOR 600 Lite vs Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus

Our Verdict: The HONOR 600 Lite has the better camera on paper, 108MP versus 50MP, plus a 16MP selfie camera against 10MP, and the 600 Lite packs the bigger battery, 6520mAh against 4500mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus has the sharper display at 390 PPI to 303, and the 600 Lite is the lighter phone at 180g against 195g. Get the 600 Lite if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the S22+ 5G covers the basics for less.

Buying outright, the S22+ 5G starts at £190 SIM-free.
