Editorial report

Honor Play10C technical sheet

Honor Play10C suits buyers who want a large, fluid display, 5G connectivity and a 6,000 mAh battery. Its main trade-offs are the 13 MP rear camera and 15 W charging, both less convincing than what most phones of its time offer.

The display is a 6.61″ IPS LCD with a 120 Hz refresh rate, 1,010 nits and 720 × 1,604 px resolution. Its refresh rate is typical for its time, while stereo speakers and IP64, IP68 and IP69 protection add practical appeal. The body is 8.4 mm thick and weighs 197 g. A side-mounted fingerprint sensor is included.

This version combines the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Honor Play10C is also sold in 6 GB / 128 GB and 8 GB / 256 GB configurations. It runs Android 15, but has no Google Services or direct OS updates. Connectivity includes 5G, dual SIM, NFC, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS and USB Type-C.

The 13 MP rear camera is among the weakest of its time and has no optical stabilization. Battery capacity is typical, while 15 W charging is slower than what most phones of its time offer. With an overall NeoScore of 5.3, Honor Play10C is better suited to buyers prioritizing the display, protection and connections than the camera or fast charging.
