NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

Hotwav Cyber 18 is the most complete choice for anyone seeking a smoother display and more storage, with 120 Hz and 256 GB. Cyber 17 shares its measured performance, resistance, and 18 W charging, but stops at 128 GB. Cyber 13 is the pick for battery capacity and lower weight.

Cyber 18 leads on the display with 120 Hz, versus 90 Hz on both Cyber 13 and Cyber 17. It also has the tougher build: IP68 and IP69 plus drop-resistance class A, matching Cyber 17, while Cyber 13 has IP68 and class D. All three use a 720 px IPS LCD display with 500 nits.

Cyber 13 keeps practical advantages: 10,800 mAh versus 6,200 mAh, reverse charging, and stereo speakers; it also weighs 388 g versus 582 g for the other two. Cyber 17 and Cyber 18 charge at 18 W rather than 10 W and reach 307,500 in AnTuTu versus 235,000. Cyber 18 adds 256 GB, while Cyber 13 has Bluetooth 5.1 versus Bluetooth 5.0. The choice is between endurance and lower weight or display, resistance, and storage.
