Honor has officially unveiled its latest entry-level smartphone, the Honor Play 70 Plus, and it’s already turning heads with its feature-rich package at a budget-friendly price. Packed with a massive 7000mAh battery, a 6.77-inch 120Hz LCD display, and IP65 dust and splash resistance, this new device seems purpose-built for users prioritizing endurance and value.
Square Design with Sturdy Build
Visually, the Play 70 Plus brings a fresh, boxy aesthetic that feels more refined compared to its predecessor. The phone features a high-strength composite frame and a distinctive oval-shaped dual-camera module, housing a 50MP primary sensor alongside an auxiliary lens. Measuring 167 x 77 x 8mm and weighing 207g, it strikes a balance between durability and comfort.

Display & Audio: Sharp and Loud
The front sports a 6.77-inch LCD straight screen with an HD+ resolution of 1610 x 720 and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The fingerprint scanner is integrated into the power button. For audio, Honor has added a “400% loud” dual-speaker system, perfect for media consumption and hands-free communication.
Snapdragon 6s Gen3 Inside
Powering the phone is the Snapdragon 6s Gen3 chipset. Though not the fastest chip in its class, it doubles AI computing power over the previous generation, making it ideal for casual users, video playback, and app multitasking.
Storage & Features: More Than Basic
The Honor Play 70 Plus comes in three storage variants:
- 8GB + 256GB
- 12GB + 256GB
- 12GB + 512GB
Additional features include full-function NFC (bus card, access simulation, contactless payment) and an IP65 protection rating, offering splash and dust resistance—rare in this segment.
Massive Battery with Decent Fast Charging
The highlight is the huge 7000mAh Qinghai Lake battery paired with 45W wired fast charging. While not the fastest, it’s highly practical for users who value battery longevity over speed—ideal for children, elderly users, or as a backup phone.
Honor Play 70 Plus Price & Availability
The Honor Play 70 Plus went on pre-sale on August 4th in China. The base 8GB + 256GB variant is priced at just ¥1399 (~$193 USD), making it one of the best-value large-battery phones in its class.
