Being just 0.29" thick,the Honor Play is extremely thin and comfortable. The Honor Play is quite a compact cellphone, taking into account that it packs a 6.3" screen and it's just 6.22" long. This phone feels much lighter than what one would think about a phone this size. The Honor Play is available in a variety of color variations, black, blue, purple and red. Talking about its construction quality, this phone is manufactured with Aluminum .

This device comes with a HiSilicon Kirin 970 chip, backed up by an extremely fast Octa-Core processor ticking at 2.36 gigahertz with a huge 6 GB RAM. A key advantage of this phone is its 64 GB astonishing internal storage memory and an SD memory card expansion slot, allowing the user to store hundreds of apps and even the largest games currently available without thinking about running out of space at all.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 16 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 16 megapixels front facing camera. The Honor Play also films 4K 3840x2160 videos at 30 fps, and slow motion videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 60 frames per second. This cellphone also features auto-focus.

The Honor Play includes wi-fi capability (which it can provide to other devices acting as a modem or router), 4G (LTE-A) high bandwidth connectivity and also HSPA+ connection type (which is a slower 4G technology) and the fastest 3G connectivity, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies.

The Honor Play counts with a big capacity 3750 mAh Li - Polymer non-removable battery providing the Honor Play an amazing battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that the Honor Play's battery is not replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it starts to get older, whereas with such a big battery you will probably replace this phone before it happens.
