One of the Honor brand’s latest smartphone offering is the Huawei Honor Play 3. The smartphone is primed for sleek performance yet it comes with an entry-level price tag. On the smartphone, you’ll enjoy features like the 48MP camera alongside the two supporting cameras, punch-hole design, a remarkable 4,000mA and a Kirin SoC to match your smartphone needs.
Without further ado, let’s see what this baby has in stock.
Huawei Honor Play 3 Features (Preview)
I’ll be starting with the phone’s camera section as that’s where the major attraction lies. Huawei Honor Play 3 packs a 48MP wide lens with f/1.8 aperture as its main rear shooter. This camera comes with two assisting cameras: one’s an 8MP ultra-wide shooter with a 120-degree field of view while the other’s a 5MP depth sensor. Brilliant images and videos are captured with these shooters.
The punch-hole arena of the smartphone serves as the home to the 8MP selfie sensor. Asides from snapping selfies, it also takes charge of Face ID security on the smartphone. Cutting costs, the company avoids the fingerprint sensor on this device. This leaves with the basic modes of protection which are passwords, PINs, and patterns.
Running the smartphone for several hours is quite easy due to the 4,000mAh battery on board. The battery takes a little over 2 hours to recharge from 0% to 100% because of the Fast Charge 10W.
For the display, the 6.39-inch display works hand in hand with 720 x 1560 pixels resolution to serve you a decent viewing experience. As much as 85% screen ratio is available alongside the 19.5:9 aspect ratio.
Performance-wise, the Kirin 710F is the king of the show. It is equipped with Octa-core 2.2GHz Cortex-A73 CPU and 12nm FinFET process for smooth sailing operations. The phone’s graphics are disseminated by the Mali-G51 MP4.
Loading and opening of apps are effortless because there’s a 4GB RAM in the phone’s standard model. In a beefed-up edition, there’s a 6GB RAM onboard. There are also options of 64GB and 128GB in the internal storage section.
