Honor's latest mid-range and premium smartphones share a surprising amount of core hardware, but the Pro model packs meaningful upgrades for those willing to spend more. The Honor 600 and Honor 600 Pro both launch with identical displays, batteries, and main cameras, making the base model a strong value proposition.
Pro model adds telephoto and wireless charging
Both phones feature a 6.57-inch AMOLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate, 1 billion colors, HDR Vivid support, 3840Hz PWM dimming, and 8000-nit peak brightness. Under the hood, the standard Honor 600 runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, while the Pro variant jumps to the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite.
Spec comparison

The primary camera hardware is identical on both devices, featuring a 200MP sensor with OIS. However, the Honor 600 Pro adds a dedicated 50MP telephoto lens with OIS and 3.5x optical zoom, enabling better portrait and zoom shots. The Pro also supports 4K video recording at 60fps.
Pricing starts at $500 for the base model
Battery capacity is the same across both models: a 7000mAh silicon-carbon cell with 80W wired charging. The Pro model adds 50W wireless charging, a feature absent on the standard version. The Honor 600 Pro also offers up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, along with Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity.
Pricing starts at around $500 for the Honor 600 globally, with an Indian variant priced at approximately 42,000 INR (about $441). The Honor 600 Pro costs roughly $750 globally, or about 65,000 INR (around $683) in India. Both devices carry IP68/IP69K dust and water resistance ratings.
The Honor 600 series positions itself as a versatile lineup: the base model delivers flagship-level display and battery at a mid-range price, while the Pro targets enthusiasts who want a telephoto camera, wireless charging, and a faster processor. Buyers should weigh whether the extra features justify the $250 premium.
