The mid-range segment around the price of Rs 20,000 had been missing a new debut for quite some time now. Earlier, there was the option of buying the Redmi Note 5 Pro by Xiaomi which made its position as the best budget phone in this country. However, to beat the competition on a slightly higher price point of Rs 20,000 Honor has introduced the Honor Play. The phone was launched yesterday, on August 6 and surprisingly it comes with many impressive features and hardware onboard. Let’s dive right in and see the top 5 elements which make the Honor Play stand out from the crowd.

Powerful Processor
The Honor Play has been titled to be “crazy fast and crazy smart” and the capability to execute comes from the in-house manufactured Kirin 970 which is an octa-core processor packing four cores at 2.5GHz. The phone also comes paired with 4GB or 6GB RAM which provides enough memory for smooth operations and multi-tasking. Both the variants ship with 64GB of internal storage and there’s a microSD card slot for storage expansion.
Dedicated NPU for AI
To righteously empower AI based features on the devices, Honor has shipped the Honor Play with a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU). The NPU helps the device in better optimising the applications for battery usage, and the AI enhancements further add to the performance. There is also the AI scene recognition which is a significant feature Honor is boasting about on its phone.
