Honor has introduced two new refreshes to its popular midrange series. Meet the Honor Play 6T and 6T Pro.
First, we have the Honor Play 6T, which is powered by the trusty MediaTek Dimensity 700 processor. It also comes with an enormous 6.7-inch screen, a 5,000mAh battery, but an underwhelming 5-megapixel and 13-megapixel cameras in front and back, respectively.

The Honor Play 6T will be available in China for CNY1,199 (around Php9,700). That’s for the 8GB/128GB. You can also get it with twice the storage capacity for CNY1,399 (around Php11,300).
