HONOR 600 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy A17 4G

Our Verdict: If you are choosing between Samsung Galaxy A17 4G and HONOR 600 Pro, display quality is the main reason to lean one way. The HONOR has a sharper 458 PPI display, its AMOLED panel, and a higher-resolution 200MP rear camera; the Samsung mainly responds with its Super AMOLED panel. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. The HONOR is the better fit for display quality, while the Samsung is the one to consider for simplicity.

The A17 4G is the cheaper one to own: around £249 over a typical contract, £436 less than the 600 Pro.
