HONOR Magic 7 Pro vs Motorola Edge 70 Pro

Our Verdict: HONOR Magic 7 Pro is the more convincing choice if you care most about a higher-resolution 200MP rear camera. Motorola Edge 70 Pro has its own appeal, especially a larger 6500mAh battery, while remembering capacity is not a full battery-life test. The right pick is HONOR Magic 7 Pro for rear-camera resolution, or Motorola Edge 70 Pro for battery capacity.

The Edge 5G 70 Pro is the cheaper one to own: around £713 over a typical contract, £682 less than the Magic 7 Pro.
