Honor has revealed its new Play 80 Pro in China marketplace
Hey, did ya hear? Honor just launched the Play 80 Pro, its latest smartphone locally in China. It features a pretty big 6.8-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 1610 x 720 pixels, and it refreshes really smooth at 60 Hz. The screen gets pretty bright too, topping out at 850 nits. It’s kinda chunky with a thickness of 8.24 mm, and it weighs about 207 grams, which is kinda hefty but manageable.
Specs, Performance & Storage
Now, under the hood, it packs a Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 processor that should be decent for daily tasks and some gaming. The device comes with 256 GB storage, but sad part is, no microSD slot for expanding. It runs on Android 15-based MagicOS 9, so you get a newer Android experience. The camera array isn’t groundbreaking but still decent with a 50 MP main camera and a 5 MP for selfies which should be enough for casual shots.
Battery & Durability Details
- The Play 80 Pro’s biggest highlight is its massive 7,000 mAh battery, which should easily last a couple of days depending on use.
- It’s IP65-rated, so it’s resistant to water splashes and dust, which is a good feature considering its price point.
Pricing & Color Options
The phone starts at CNY 1,899, which is around $275, for the 6 GB RAM with 256 GB storage version. If you prefer more RAM, the 8 GB + 256 GB version costs about CNY 2,099 ($304), and the top-tier 12 GB + 256 GB variant is priced at CNY 2,299 ($333). Colors include sky blue, moon shadow, and dark night, offering some nice variety for buyers.
Availability & Future Prospects
As of now, this new Honor Play 80 Pro is only available in China. There is no official info yet about international release or availability. If you want to find out more, you should check the official Honor website for updates or announcements. It seems like it’s a decent budget-friendly choice for those in China looking for a big screen with solid battery life.
