Editor Rating
3.2/5

Honor Play 5T Pro is a nice upgrade over the regular 5T, which in itself is a bump up from the base model of the Play series sold by the popular Chinese brand. The smartphone features a refined and understated design, with a solid plastic frame and body construction that keeps the weight down while delivering protection against fall damage and scratches. The rear panel has been given a subtle matte paint job with a light glossy finish that reflects nicely under direct sunlight. The camera module has been trimmed down to a slim rectangle that features a glass covering over the lenses, with the rest of the unit painted the same colour as the rear panel.

Bottom Line

Honor Play 5T Pro is a nice upgrade to the base model 5 series smartphone, which gets a decent display and processor, usable cameras, and a small battery to keep it all running. The charging speeds are pretty basic and you get no wireless charging.
