Editor Rating
3.2/5

Honor Play 20 is a basic and affordable entry-level smartphone that features a simple design and solid build quality. The frame and body are made from plastic, which helps keep the cost and weight down while maintaining flexibility and protection against fall damage and scratches. The rear panel has been given a matte paint job with a glossy finish on top to make it reflect nicely under direct sunlight. This also makes it easier for fingerprints to remain on the panel, but that can be easily rectified by using a back cover. The camera module has been trimmed down to a tiny square, which is almost flush with the surface.

Bottom Line

Honor Play 20 is a simple and affordable entry-level smartphone that features a nice display, an efficient processor, and barely usable cameras, and a large but slow charging battery to keep it all going.
