When it comes to updates, Android phones trail behind iPhones. A lot of manufacturers seldom go beyond the first year of release for a lot of their models most especially entry and mid-range devices. However, there are usually some exceptional cases. One of them is Honor Play 4X which was released back in October 2014 and recently got an update.

According to a Weibo post by a user called Changan Digital King, the Honor Play 4X recently received an update in China. It is a small update weighing in at just 57.74MB and a rough translation says it is an optimization for a feature. There is no security update and the Android version is still unchanged.

The Honor Play 4X has a 5.5-inch 720 x 1280 display with thick bezels and capacitive buttons. It is powered by the Kirin 620 processor paired with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of expandable storage. It has a 13MP rear camera and a 5MP selfie camera. It also packs a 3000mAh battery. When it launched, it ran Android 4.4.2 Kitkat out of the box.
