A few days ago, Honor had announced its new Play 6 series smartphone in its home country China, dubbed as Honor Play 6C. Today, the smartphone officially goes on sale in the Chinese market.
The Honor Play 6C is now available for purchase in China for the price of 1,099 yuan, which roughly converts to $153. The 8GB RAM and 128GB model costs 1,299 yuan (~$181), but it’s not on sale yet. The smartphone comes in three colors — Silver, Black, and Blue.
The smartphone features a 6.5-inch LCD HD display offering a screen resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels and a refresh rate of 90Hz. It has also passed the German Rheinland low blue light eye protection certification.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 Plus 5G processor, which is based on an 8nm process. It supports a smart dual card function and can enable two 5G SIM cards on standby simultaneously. It can also automatically switch the card’s priority based on the network quality.
In terms of memory, the device packs up to 8GB of RAM and offers 128GB of internal storage. In the camera department, there’s a 13-megapixel camera sensor on the back with an LED flash, while on the front side, it comes with a 5-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
There’s a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for added security. In the software department, the phone runs Magic UI 5.0 custom user interface based on the Android operating system, which the company says will receive updates for three years. The phone is powered by a 5,000mAh battery and supports 22.5W fast charging.
