Honor Play 5 Youth
Honor Play 5 Youth is a more trendy version of the base model Play 5 smartphone sold by the Chinese brand, which features a new design and affordable price tag. It still features the same solid and lightweight plastic frame and body combination that helps save on costs while providing ample protection against fall damage and scratches. You get a nice matte finish on the rear panel, with the sides being curved to make it easier to hold. The front panel is pretty flat but looks almost bezel-less thanks to a tiny punch-hole cutout for the camera that replaces the notch.
