How to choose

  • Compare performance rather than chipset names alone. AnTuTu results in this group range from 2,243,804 for the Honor 400 Pro to 3,815,522 for the Vivo iQOO 15T. Buyers prioritizing demanding workloads can also use MobileRank's performance score, which ranges from 82 to 95 across these seven models.

  • Check battery score and estimated hours together. A larger battery does not automatically produce the highest battery score. For example, the Vivo iQOO 15T has the largest 8,000 mAh battery and the longest estimated endurance at 15.5 hours, while the Redmi K80 Pro and Poco F7 Pro lead the battery-score metric at 87.

  • Use the camera score when photography matters. None of these seven models has a DXOMark value in the supplied data, so the available comparison is MobileRank's camera score. The Honor 600 Pro and Honor 400 Pro both score 78, compared with 56 for the Realme GT 8 and 65 for the Vivo iQOO 15T.

  • Check practical features separately from benchmark results. NFC and IP68 protection are specified for six of the seven models; those fields are not provided for the Realme GT 8. Weight also varies from 190 g for the Honor 600 Pro to 220 g for the Poco F7 Pro, which may matter as much as benchmark differences for everyday use.
