- Slower wired charging compared to Honor 70 Pro+
Display Comparison
Both phones feature high-quality displays, but direct comparison data is limited. The OnePlus 10 Pro is confirmed to reach 780 nits of peak brightness, a respectable figure. While the Honor 70 Pro+'s peak brightness isn't specified, it's likely comparable. The OnePlus 10 Pro's 'Infinite' contrast ratio suggests a typical OLED panel, while details on the Honor's panel technology (LTPO, PWM dimming rate) are missing. Users sensitive to flicker will need to investigate the Honor 70 Pro+'s PWM frequency.
Camera Comparison
Both devices are advertised as having strong camera systems, but specifics are limited. Without detailed sensor size and aperture information, a direct comparison is difficult. Both phones offer photo and video capabilities, but the Honor 70 Pro+’s camera system is a key selling point, though details beyond marketing claims are scarce. The OnePlus 10 Pro benefits from Hasselblad color calibration, aiming for more natural image processing. We can assume both phones will include standard features like OIS on the main sensor, but the quality of image stabilization and low-light performance will depend on sensor size and software algorithms.
Performance
The core battle lies between the Mediatek Dimensity 9000 in the Honor 70 Pro+ and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in the OnePlus 10 Pro. Both are 4nm chips with similar core configurations – 1x Cortex-X2, 3x Cortex-A710, and 4x Cortex-A510. However, the Dimensity 9000 boasts a slightly higher peak Cortex-X2 clock speed (3.05 GHz vs 3.00 GHz). More crucially, the Dimensity 9000 is generally regarded as more thermally efficient, potentially leading to less throttling under sustained load. The OnePlus 10 Pro's Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 is known to run hot, impacting long-term performance. Both likely utilize LPDDR5X RAM, ensuring fast memory access.
Battery Life
The OnePlus 10 Pro has an endurance rating of 107 hours, indicating solid battery life. However, the Honor 70 Pro+’s battery capacity is not specified. The real differentiator is charging speed. The Honor 70 Pro+ supports 100W wired charging, claiming 60% charge in 15 minutes. The OnePlus 10 Pro offers 80W wired (International) or 65W (North America) charging, taking 32 minutes for a full charge (International) and achieving 58% in 15 minutes (North America). The Honor’s charging is significantly faster. The OnePlus 10 Pro also offers 50W wireless charging and reverse wireless charging, features absent in the Honor 70 Pro+.
Buying Guide
Buy the Honor 70 Pro+ if you need the absolute fastest charging available, value sustained performance during extended gaming sessions, and are comfortable with Honor's Magic UI. Buy the OnePlus 10 Pro if you prefer a more refined software experience, prioritize wireless charging convenience, and appreciate the broader OnePlus ecosystem of accessories and support.
