HONOR X 6c vs Samsung Galaxy S25
Our Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S25 supports 5G while the HONOR X 6c tops out at 4G, and there's more battery in the X 6c, 5300mAh to 4000mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use. The X 6c has the bigger screen at 6.6" against 6.2", while the S25 has the sharper one at 416 PPI, and storage goes higher on the S25, up to 512GB against 256GB. Get the S25 if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the X 6c covers the basics for less.
