NeoTeo's verdict
Which of the two is the better buy
The Hotwav Note 18 GT is the pick for faster-feeling storage, while the Hotwav Note 18 Pro suits buyers who value a lighter phone and better battery efficiency. The GT uses UFS 2.1 versus eMMC 5.1; the Pro weighs 225 g versus 243 g and carries a B efficiency rating versus C. The GT's overall lead is narrow: 4.9 versus 4.7.
They are level for display, but the GT adds 120Hz and the Pro does not. Both have 6GB of RAM, up to 128GB of storage and the Unisoc Tiger T615 (T7250). The Pro has a 50MP main camera versus 48MP on the GT, with a Samsung sensor in the Pro and an OmniVision OV48B in the GT.
Connectivity is broadly alike: both include NFC, USB Type-C and USB OTG, while the GT adds a 3.5mm audio jack. Both batteries are 6200mAh with 20W charging and 1000 cycles, leaving the choice between UFS 2.1 and the Pro's lower weight plus its better efficiency rating.
