The Honor 600 series was unveiled yesterday and today it arrived in Europe with a major makeover. While the units sold across Asia are equipped with a 7,000mAh Si-C battery, the European versions come with a 6,400mAh cell.
And while the difference in battery capacities is definitely in favor of the international Honor 600 variants, Honor decided to conduct an unusual battery test against its key competitors. Instead of comparing running times in regular usage scenarios, Honor’s engineers took out the Honor 600’s 7,000mAh Si-Si battery and fitted it to power a miniature RC car.
He then did the same with the batteries of the eSIM-only iPhone 17 Pro (4,252mAh) and Samsung Galaxy S26 (4,300mAh).
The three battery cells were then pitted against each other on a track to see which one would outcompete the others. With a huge potential, Honor came out on top as expected. The video (linked below) features several subtle jabs at Apple and Samsung, including referring to the iPhone 17 Pro as “The First to Retire,” while crediting the Galaxy S26 as “The Persistent Challenger.”
