Honor recently unveiled its new number series phones, the Honor 300 Pro and Honor 300 Ultra. While both phones target the high-end market, a closer look at them reveals they are surprisingly similar. So this begs the question whether the Ultra model justifies its higher price.
Here’s why the Honor 300 Ultra might not make much sense when the 300 Pro offers nearly identical specifications at a significantly lower cost.
Design and Build
From a design perspective, the Honor 300 Ultra and 300 Pro are indistinguishable. Both feature identical dimensions (163.8 x 75.3 x 8.2 mm) and weight (198g for the Ultra and 199g for the Pro), as well as IP65-rated dust and water resistance. They even share the same 6.78-inch AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rates, 1 billion colors, and an impressive peak brightness of 4000 nits.
The Ultra model does have what Honor says is a 7-layer plain leather back embossed with a subtle pattern for a more premium look. But both share the same camera module and front design, making it nearly impossible to tell them apart when placed side by side.
