HONOR 600 Lite vs Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Our Verdict: The HONOR 600 Lite packs the bigger battery, 6520mAh against 5000mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use, and the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has the stronger screen, bigger at 6.8" against 6.6" and sharper at 500 PPI. The S22 Ultra 5G goes up to 512GB of storage, where the 600 Lite tops out at 256GB, and the 600 Lite is the lighter phone at 180g against 228g. Only pay up for the 600 Lite if you'll use what it offers; if not, the S22 Ultra 5G makes more sense.

Buying outright, the S22 Ultra 5G starts at £270 SIM-free.
