NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Huawei Mate 80 Pro is the more capable all-round choice: its 120 Hz LTPO OLED display, double the RAM, and 5750 mAh battery set it apart from the Mate 40E. The Mate 40E still suits buyers who want a lighter phone with expandable storage.

The Mate 80 Pro’s screen measures 6.75″ against 6.5″, with 1280 × 2832 px versus 1080 × 2376 px and a 120 Hz refresh rate instead of 90 Hz. The Mate 40E weighs 188 g against 219 g and supports expandable storage, which the Mate 80 Pro lacks. The newer phone’s IP68 and IP69 protection also tops the Mate 40E’s IP53.

The Mate 80 Pro doubles RAM at 16 GB versus 8 GB and scores 1,700,000 in AnTuTu against 433,894. Its 5750 mAh battery and 100 W charging lead the Mate 40E’s 4200 mAh and 40 W. For cameras, the Mate 80 Pro has a 48 MP telephoto with 4 x optical zoom, versus 8 MP and 3 x; the Mate 40E counters with a 64 MP main camera against 50 MP.
