Honor unexpectedly introduced an affordable smartphone Play 5T Life – still without Google services
Honor today unveiled the Play 5T Life. The announcement of the available novelty was a complete surprise, as Honor Product Manager Wei Xiaolong previously announced that the launch of the new Honor Play smartphone would take place next month. It should be noted that no measures were taken in this regard. The smartphone just appeared in the list of offers of the company’s Chinese store, even without a press release.
The Honor Play 5T Life is based on the Mediatek Helio P35 processor, which contains eight ARM Cortex-A53 cores clocked up to 2.3 GHz and the IMG PowerVR GE8320 graphics accelerator. The amount of RAM is 6 GB. The flash storage capacity of 128 GB can be expanded with a microSD card up to 512 GB.
The smartphone is equipped with a 6.6-inch LCD with HD + resolution, at the top of which there is a cutout for an 8-megapixel selfie camera. The fingerprint scanner is combined with the power button located on the side of the case.
The back is a quad-camera with a main 13MP sensor, a 5MP ultra-wide-angle sensor, a 2MP macro sensor, and a 2MP depth sensor.
The 5000mAh battery supports 22.5W fast charging. The smartphone also has wireless adapters, Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n, Bluetooth 5.1, 3.5 mm audio jack, and a USB-C port.
Honor Play 5T Life runs Magic UI 4.0 based on Android 10 OS. Nothing is said about support for Google services since the smartphone is only presented in China so far. The new product is available for pre-order in China in black and blue for about $ 200. The first flash sale of the device will take place on April 27th.
