Honor Play10C has been officially released on Aug. 12, 2025.

Product Main Features:

The phone measures 164 x 75.6 x 8.4 mm and weighs 197 grams, making it slightly bulky but still manageable for daily use. It supports dual Nano-SIM cards and comes with an IP64 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and resistant to water splashes, adding a layer of durability.

On the front, you get a 6.61-inch TFT LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1010 nits peak brightness, ensuring smooth visuals and decent outdoor visibility. However, the 720 x 1604 pixel resolution translates to just 266 ppi density, which is below average compared to modern standards. Still, the display covers a good 84.9% screen-to-body ratio, giving an immersive look.

Running on Android 15 with MagicOS 9, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (6nm) chipset. Its octa-core CPU includes two Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.4 GHz for performance and six Cortex-A55 cores for efficiency, paired with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. Storage options include 128GB with 4GB/6GB RAM and 256GB with 8GB RAM, but there is no memory card slot for expansion.

For photography, Honor Play10C has a 13 MP main rear camera with f/1.8 aperture, HDR, and LED flash. It can shoot 1080p videos at 30fps. The front houses a 5 MP selfie camera, also capable of 1080p@30fps video, making it very basic for today’s standards. In terms of sound, it includes a loudspeaker and 3.5mm headphone jack, which many users will appreciate.

Connectivity options feature Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth 5.3 with aptX HD, and full GPS support (GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BDS). However, there is no NFC and no FM radio. Security and sensors include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, accelerometer, proximity sensor, and compass.

Powering it all is a massive 6000 mAh Li-Po battery that supports 15W wired charging and 2.5W reverse wired charging. Available in Black, White, and Green, this phone is built for battery life and practicality over premium specs.

Hardware

CPU The main chipset of the device.

Octa-core (2x2.4 GHz Cortex-A76 + 6x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55)
GPU GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a single-chip processor designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display, This includes things such as lighting effects, object transformations, and 3D motion.

Mali-G57 MC2
RAM (Memory) RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes that allows information to be stored and accessed quickly from random locations. RAM is the most common type of memory found in computer systems, smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices.

4 GB, 6 GB, 8 GB
Internal Storage Internal Storage is a data storage space (flash memory) mostly used in smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices where operating system, apps, music, photos, videos, files and other user data Is stored.

128 GB, 256 GB
Memory Card Slot Memory Card Slot is a special slot for inserting a memory card. Memory cards allow you to expand the phone's built-in memory, A memory card (sometimes called a flash memory card or a storage card) is a small storage medium used to store data such as text, pictures, audio, and video, for use on small, portable or remote computing devices such as mobile phones, mp3 players, digital cameras.

No
Sensors Sensors are electronic components that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment. The specific input could be light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure and location, The output is generally a signal that is converted to use in computing systems, a location sensor, such as a GPS receiver is able to detect current location of your electronic device.

Fingerprint (side-mounted), accelerometer, proximity, compass

Software

Operating System OS => Every computer system run on a base software called Operating System (OS). Operating System controls all basic operations of the computer (such as smartphone, PDAs, tablet computers and other handheld devices). The Operating System allows the user to install and run third party applications (apps), apps are used to add new functionality to the device.

Android 15
User Interface UI or user interface of a device is the look and feel of the on-screen menu system. How it works, its color scheme, how it responds to button presses, all of these things are part of the user interface.

MagicOS 9

Camera

Rear Camera Camera is able to capture photographs and usually videos, The most important characteristics of a camera are the resolution (measured in megapixels), lens focus type (fixed or automatic), higher megapixel cameras are known to capture higher quality photos, but not always a good measurement of the photos quality.

13 MP (wide)
Image

1080p
Video

1080p@30fps
Flash Flash Light => There is commonly two types of flash lights are used in camera mobile phones, LED Flash (LED flash offers lower power consumption with drive circuitry that takes up very little room, LEDs can be strobed faster than any other light source), Xenon Flash (xenon flash produces an extremely intense full-spectrum white light for a very short duration)

Network

SIM SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) is a small card that contains mobile network subscriber's account information. This allows the phone using the card to attach to a mobile network. The SIM card is most commonly associated with GSM and UMTS mobile networks. Moving a SIM card from one phone to another allows a subscriber to switch mobile phones without having to contact their mobile network carrier. SIM cards can also be used by a phone to store limited amounts of data, such as phone numbers and text messages.

GPS GPS The Global Positioning System is a satellite-based radio navigation system, GPS permits users to determine their position, velocity and the time 24 hours a day, in all weather, anywhere in the world, In order to locate your position, your device or GPS receiver must have a clear view of the sky.

Yes
NFC NFC (Near field communication) is a set of standards for smartphones and similar devices to establish peer-to-peer radio communications with each other by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, usually no more than a few inches.

Yes
Wireless Charging Wireless Charging (Inductive Charging) uses an electromagnetic field to transfer energy between two objects. This is usually done with a charging station. Energy is sent through an inductive coupling to an electrical device, which can then use that energy to charge batteries or run the device.
