Honor has had a very busy past couple of months. Just last month, they launched their upper mid-ranger Honor 30S. And now, they have launched two new handsets in the form of Honor Play 4T and Play 4T Pro. It is really commendable that the ongoing pandemic has not been able to stop smartphone makers from releasing new smartphones. Both of them are going to be a budget offering and from the looks of it, these are some powerful devices. Having said that, hopefully, the price of Honor Play 4T and Honor Play 4T Pro in markets like Nepal would be reasonable too.
Honor Play 4T Overview
Talking about the standard Play 4T, it has a 6.4-inch IPS LCD with HD+ resolution. As per the trend these days, the front camera is housed in a punch-hole cutout. The housed selfie shooter is of 8MP. On the back, there’s a dual-camera setup. It features a 48MP primary sensor and a 2MP secondary sensor.
Under the hood, the Honor 4T uses Huawei’s Kirin 710A SoC. This mid-range chipset is paired with 6GB of RAM and internal storage of 128GB. However, there is an option to expand the storage up to 512GB via a microSD card. On the software side of things, it will run on Magic UI 3.1 on top of Android 10. And the power source of the device is a 4,000mAh Li-Po battery.
