Honor has launched its latest entry-level 5G phone in China dubbed the Play 50 Plus. Although it’s a budget phone, it brings some notable features such as a massive battery, a smooth display, and more.
The display is a 6.8-inch IPS LCD with 1080p resolution (1080 x 2400 pixels) and a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. There is a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera, 850 nits of peak brightness, and a 20:09 aspect ratio. The fingerprint sensor resides on the side for quick unlocks.
On the inside, there is a MediaTek Dimensity 6020 chip that can be paired with up to 12 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of storage, which is plenty for a budget phone. Honor has not talked about the presence of a microSD card slot for storage expansion.
For software, the phone boots Magic OS 7.2 on top of Android 13.
The large circular camera cutouts on the back include a 50MP primary sensor and a 2MP depth camera alongside the LED flash. The selfie camera inside the punch-hole cutout is an 8MP shooter. There is no word on video recording capabilities.
The battery is one of the highlighting features of this phone. It is a sizable 6,000 mAh power cell paired with 35W fast-wired charging.
The Honor Play 50 Plus has a starting price of $195 in China. It is available in Magic Night Black, Mo Yuqing (green), Star Purple, and Streaming Silver.
