So in other words the Magic 4 Pro wipes the floor with the S22-. To add insult to injury the lower priced Honor comes with a charger. I hate the square edges of the S22- and would definitely give the nod to Honor in build quality. Samsung basically gutted the once mighty Galaxy + in order for customers to buy the more expensive Notes and Ultras. Great comparison video.
S22+ for MUCH better software support. My Magic4 Pro I got today had the security patch from April whereas my S22 Ultra had the June security patch, so guess which phone I returned :-) For such an expensive phone this is unacceptable in my opionion.
Samsung already builds good devices but what they do with the Android is terrible. A lot of bloatware on it that you can't get rid of in the normal way and then this Samsung account compulsion. That sucks, that's why I'm away from Samsung! Stock Android is best! Without blotarware!
Had a samsung ultra.. Put it Away and started using my huwaei p30 pro again. I understand why ppl leave android for ios after experiencing Samsung devices. Utter joke
I like both, Samsung is good in built quality n I like their ui, Honor is having good deal. After researching all, I go for honor because I get free watch free earphone with good specs
Honor isn't really a known brand in EU either. High price, not many updates compared to in this example Samsung, all things that will make the resale value plummet. Heck there's people not knowing about Xiaomi (which i use).
I will choose magic 4 bcuz great system ultra sonic faster face lock 🔒 and finger sencor Great design and look also best feature and specially circular camera setup it make phone most premium look and George's
Samsung charging speed has been slow for so long already. Same like apple. But the worse thing is no charger in box. Rm4k phone but can't give charger. Just unacceptable.
Both Apple and Samsung are currently being sued by consumer boards for not including chargers in their products. The consumers want these two to explain their doings and actions to see how they want to justify themselves. Customers can't accept their excuses of wanting to generate less pollution while the retail price of their products continue to increase instead of decreasing.
S22+ is better for a more pocket friendly, OTG smartphone experience while the Honor is best offer a good smartphone at 4k. You are not wrong getting either one of these.

I think the one thing that was missing from the video would be addressing the amount of software updates in comparison between Honor and Samsung. Samsung has committed to 4 years of Android updates. Would love to know if Honor would commit to the same policy. Would love if you could add these talking points to your future reviews or comparisons. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Already asked honor about this via Instagram. This is exactly what they replied, 'Dear Azri Arif, kindly be advised that HONOR will continue to provide system & security patch update from time to time for HONOR devices. Customer's experience and interest are the top priority of HONOR, rest assured that HONOR research and development team would always test out the system stability in hope of mitigating the risk of having system bugs & glitches.' Kinda disappointed. They cant confidently announce how many android update will they give.

If honor use dimensity 9000 or Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 then I would get one of it but using Snapdragon 8 gen 1 kinda quite disappointed because battery drain using Snapdragon 8 gen 1 still quite bad...the only thing that honor magic 4 pro doesn't drain much battery compare other device using Snapdragon 8 gen 1 because of the software and honor limit the performance of the Snapdragon 8 gen 1
@@pudinichigo91 not much phone will launch using snapdragon 8+ gen 1 probably a few and I guess much higher price and don't think so there's will be another flagship from honor this year. Gotta wait for next year I guess. The snapdragon 8 gen 2 will launch much earlier this year compare to last year.
@@K_AcE11 at least 3 from Xiaomi, 1 from OnePlus & 2 from Samsung that will use 8+g1, and also a fews of them from other manufacturer like Asus, Redmi & Realme, from Honor I'm not sure because I not well know about their flagship series
This review is little bit inclined toward the honor, as if you are fan or paid by them. You had mentioned a lot of perks form honor, but non from samsung, and there are ton of them for sure. Btw, this observation is totally neutral as I'm fan of Xiaomi and never used Samsung phone in my life.
It's weird to see that so many UA-camrs (from Malaysia, obviously) post the same comparison video featuring Magic 4 Pro and S22+ with only one/two days gap. Anyway, Honor is superior in perhaps charging and camera hardware but I'll still go for Samsung because of OneUI, a not too bad camera setup, Dynamic AMOLED, longer software support and most importantly, a flat display.
@@rizzqanarchie Perhaps, as this is not the first time such thing happened. I've seen it before just different phone. But the thing is the same, one newly lauched phone vs one which launched for a few months.
Two years of software updates from Honor and four from Samsung, that alone settles it for me. Phone upgrade cycles are increasing, and two years of updates just won't do anymore. Unless the person knows that they will update their phone within two years, then yeah, the Magic4 Pro is a decent pick but it's not the best choice in a field of smartphones that have better and more mature OSes than Honor's. And at RM4K, having a two year software life expectancy is a massive joke.
most malaysian users still dont care about software updates but at 3k and above phones, they should at least give 3 year update and 4-5 year security patches...not to mention it should be given monthly not two or three month for an update since we pay premium for these devices.
I am still using my mate 20x for nearly 4 years, stuck with android 10 and pixel 5 with the latest android 12. For me there is no much different between them, suprisingly mate 20x still working really fine without any lag or slow. Change the original battery from Huawei on March 2022 for rm99, and the phone can last longer than any other android phone that i have.
@@mirzaxxalex5502 My 20X is on Harmony 2.0 which is nice. Still fast and fluid with great battery life. For basic stuff it is slick and I do not use for heavy apps so still could last a while.

Thats the main reason why i switched from Xiaomi to Samsung.. Their software support is just way better
maybe the honor has better security so it doesn't need to be fixed every month.
to be honest funmap u should be way past june updaate by now
magic has isolated security chip...so no need any patches.
Mantap ya kamera Honor ni bos. Saya mau la mau tukar saya punya Huawei P40 Pro+...
Kalao mmg pakai Huawei, really should try out HONOR, sebab mmg feels dia sama tp dng tech latest.
Hey lim
Can you tell me about the price of realme 9 pro+ 8 256 variant in Malaysian offline market
Bro the price already can see in Facebook 🤣 RM2099 tu. Mahal la tu. Lebih baik beli honor ni
weirdly in my country they are the same price
Looks. Honor wins hands down.
galaxy s22 looks more and much elegant 🔥
Honor must design their own products and stop to copy the Huawei phone's designs since they're no longer belonging together.
Huawei 👍

Besides GSM ARENA review, Lim reviews are the only trusted reviews before l make any decision to purchase
I have both got my s22 last year and honor a week ago I must say that honor is the new beast in the game
I like both, Samsung is good in built quality n I like their ui, Honor is having good deal. After researching all, I go for honor because I get free watch free earphone with good specs
And a fast charger too
Hi anyone using magic 4pro here? How is the performance so far? I am confuse to get Samsung s22plus or Honor 4 Magic Pro
This is exactly what I wanted to watch thanks Lim♥️
Only through this review I got to know that Honor still exists. How can that be the best ?
Maybe you are living in a cave 😜
In Malaysia here honor is everywhere and this year they came out many difference models
Tbh I knew Honor after seeing Lim's review back then, check it out, it offers good price

Samsung technology has reached its plateau
Not a fan of the Magic 4 Pro's front camera module, it's enormous
That's why it is better because of the sensor
China brand all the way... Value for money, greater technology
please suggest 350 US dollar can buy buy honor magic 4 Pro it's Velu for money

Honor's curved screen, is better
i like the s22+ 5g design its nice
Honor magic software support how long?

honor is good in everything except the mirror back panel, hope they come out with matte finish in near future
Actually the back panel really matter? Honestly wondering cuz I see most people use a case anyway 😁
@@tanweiwen7838
but still this washing machine looks is just ugly
theres leather back.
Only 2 years of updates from honor is the deal breaker of the year in smartphones.
OneUi all the way.
what i know is the S22+ refresh rate can be down to 48hz not 24hz not as you mentioned.
you are correct. both S22 and S22+ sync (in auto mode) between 48-120Hz. But the S22+ can peak at 1750 nits that's something :)
@@_TrueDesire_ ,don't care about the the ultra brightness.
I wouldn't compare the two because of price similarity. Samsung is unnecessarily expensive. Honor is a full flagship product.

Is the S22 Plus flagship though? Different sizes, different price points, feels like apples and oranges.
The S series are flag ship.
Samsung is famous with overpriced but it also gives good experience, I'd say choose whichever fits your wallet, that will be the best option
Never had a Samsung, have a Huawei p40 pro now, would take the honor
