NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Hotwav Cyber 16 Pro is the more complete choice: its 1080 × 2408 px display, 401,000-point AnTuTu result and 108 MP main camera set it apart from the Hotwav Cyber 18, which makes more sense for buyers prioritizing usable screen area and drop resistance. The Cyber 16 Pro scores 6.0 overall versus 5.0 for the Cyber 18.

The Cyber 16 Pro delivers more detail at 400 ppi versus 269 ppi, and its MediaTek Helio G100 beats the Unisoc T615 in AnTuTu: 401,000 versus 307,500. It also leads with the main camera, using a 1/1.52″ sensor and 108 MP versus 1/2″ and 64 MP; the Cyber 18 counters with an f/1.79 aperture versus f/1.95. For selfies, the Cyber 16 Pro has 32 MP versus 16 MP.

The Cyber 18 uses more of its front, with 84% usable surface versus 75%, and survives more drop tests: 270 versus 84, while reaching class A versus D. The Cyber 16 Pro answers with 33 W versus 18 W charging, reverse charging and Wi-Fi 6E versus Wi-Fi 5; both share a 120 Hz IPS LCD, 8 GB of RAM and 10 W wireless charging.

Hotwav Cyber 16 Pro

The Hotwav Cyber 16 Pro is the buy for buyers wanting more detail, performance and camera: 400 ppi, 401,000 AnTuTu points and 108 MP.

Hotwav Cyber 18

The Hotwav Cyber 18 is the better buy only if it costs less; its real advantage is 270 drop tests and class A resistance.
