HONOR Magic V3 5G vs Motorola Edge 60 Pro
Our Verdict: The Motorola Edge 60 Pro has the bigger battery of the two, 6000mAh against 5150mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use, and the HONOR Magic V3 5G has the bigger screen at 7.9" against 6.7", while the Edge 5G 60 Pro has the sharper one at 444 PPI. The Edge 5G 60 Pro is the lighter phone at 186g against 230g. Get the V3 5G if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the Edge 5G 60 Pro covers the basics for less.
