Editor Rating
3.7/5

Honor Play 40 Plus is a reliable and affordable entry-level smartphone sold by the popular Chinese brand, which features a plastic frame and back, which has been polished to give it a glossy, matte finish that shines outward in a gradient design. The corners have been rounded while the display is completely flat. The display has very little bezels and just a tiny camera cutout on the top, which easily blends in with dark wallpapers. You get a reliable processor that can handle most day-to-day tasks but don’t expect any great gaming performance even though there is a Play in the model name.
