HONOR 600 Smart vs TCL K70 4G

Our Verdict: If you are choosing between HONOR 600 Smart and TCL K70 4G, portability is the main reason to lean one way. The HONOR has a higher-resolution 16MP front camera, a larger 7,700 mAh battery, and a lighter 180g body; the TCL mainly responds with a 6.8-inch IPS LCD display at 254 PPI, a 50MP rear camera, and an 8MP front camera. 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 portability, while the TCL is the one to consider for simplicity.

The K70 4G is the cheaper one to own: around £227 over a typical contract, £170 less than the 600 Smart.
