Honor X70 Pro Max vs Honor X70
Comparison between Honor X70 Pro Max and Honor X70: camera, battery, fast charging, display, performance and colors, side by side. More phones from Honor.
NeoTeo's verdict
Which of the two is the better buy
The Honor X70 Pro Max is the better choice for camera quality, faster charging and newer Android; the Honor X70 suits buyers who prioritize more RAM and deeper water protection.
For photography, the Pro Max adds an ultrawide camera missing from the X70, uses f/1.8 instead of f/1.9 for its main camera and records slow motion at 240 fps versus 120 fps. Performance also favors the Pro Max with an AnTuTu score of 775,000 versus 750,000, although the X70 has 12 GB of RAM versus 8 GB. Both use AMOLED displays with 6,000 nits, while the Pro Max brings Android 16 instead of Android 15 and includes Google services.
The X70 Pro Max combines an 8,560 mAh battery with 90 W charging, compared with 8,300 mAh and 80 W on the X70; both support reverse wireless charging. The X70 counters with water protection to 6 m versus 1.5 m and drop resistance up to 2 m. The choice is therefore between camera, charging and newer software, or more RAM and broader water protection.
Honor X70 Pro Max
The Honor X70 Pro Max is the better buy for a fuller camera setup, 90 W charging and Android 16.
Honor X70
The Honor X70 is the better buy only if it costs less; its 12 GB of RAM and water protection to 6 m are its clearest advantages.
The verdict
Neither runs away with it: each wins something.
