Honor has added a new smartphone to its Honor Play series. This new device is named the Honor Play 20. Based on its specifications, the phone falls into the entry-level smartphone category. This device does not seem to be the successor to the Honor Play 4 series as it has too low specifications.
The Honor Play 20 features a 6.52-inch IPS LCD display with a V-shaped notch and a resolution of 1600 x 720, supporting 16.7 million colors. The device measures 163.93 x 75.79 x 8.95 mm and weighs approximately 198g.
This phone features the Unisoc T610, an octa-core chipset manufactured using TSMC’s 12nm process. It includes two high-performance Cortex-A75 cores and six energy-efficient Cortex-A55 cores.
This phone features a rear dual-camera setup, including a 13MP main camera (f/1.8 aperture) and a 2MP depth sensor (f/2.4 aperture). The front camera is a single 5MP AI lens (f/2.2 aperture) for taking selfies. In addition, this phone does not come with a fingerprint sensor.
This phone is powered by a 5000 mAh lithium-polymer battery, providing excellent battery life. However, it only comes with a 10W charger, which means it does not support fast charging. The device has a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack, and runs the Magic UI 4.0 based on Android 10.
The Honor Play 20 is available in three storage variants: 4GB RAM with 128GB storage priced at CNY 899 (approximately $139), 6GB RAM with 128GB storage priced at CNY 1099 (approximately $169), and 8GB RAM with 128GB storage priced at CNY 1399 (approximately $216). It comes in four colors: Magic Night Black, Iceland White, Aurora Blue, and Titanium Silver. Customers can pre-order the phone by depositing CNY 50.
