Editorial report

Honor Play 50 Plus technical sheet

The Honor Play 50 Plus suits buyers who prioritize generous RAM and battery capacity; its main trade-off is a 90 Hz display refresh rate, lower than that of most phones of its time. This configuration pairs 12 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage. Its RAM capacity is higher than what most phones launched around the same time offer. Storage is not expandable.

The 6000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones of its time. Its 35 W fast charging is typical for that period. The TFT LCD display measures 6.8 inches and has a 1080 × 2412 px resolution; the 90 Hz refresh rate is the clearest display drawback against other phones from the same period. The display also has 850 nits peak brightness and a pixel density of 389 ppi.

The phone runs Android 13 but has no Google Services, a significant limitation for anyone who relies on them. Connectivity includes NFC, Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi 5 and Dual Nano-SIM. The 50 MP camera records video at 1080p and 30 fps, while the front camera is 8 MP. Overall, the Honor Play 50 Plus is typical of phones launched around the same time and earns a NeoScore of 5.3. It is a reasonable fit for buyers who put RAM and battery capacity ahead of a faster-refreshing display and Google services.
