400 vs 13T
It depends
Too close to call outright

Value Score: 400 76 · 13T 78 — methodology
The lifespan decider
When specs are close, support length decides it — this is what each phone costs per month of safe use.
Category by category
Both displays are effectively the same class.
The 13T's Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite is simply the faster chip.
The 400 has the stronger camera system — same lens count, higher-grade sensors.
6,260mAh vs 5,300mAh — the 13T lasts longer between charges.
Both phones' support windows end around the same time.
Pound for pound, these two are equally good deals.
