Category by category
The Spark 40 Pro+'s screen is the better one — 6.78-inch curved amoled, 1.5k, 144hz, up to 4500 nits peak, under-display fingerprint.
Performance is a wash — same chip tier.
The 13 Pro+ has the stronger camera system (3 real rear lenses vs 1).
Battery capacities are close enough not to decide this.
Both phones' support windows end around the same time.
Pound for pound, these two are equally good deals.
