Honor has just introduced two new terminals in its Honor Play range, the last release of which was around a year ago with the Honor Play 5T Pro. A year later, we have its successor twice in the new Honor Play 6T and Honor Play 6T Pro.

This is the Honor Play 6T
The more modest of the two terminals that Honor has presented is the Honor Play 6T, although, as we will see, technically it surpasses it in some features. We are facing a mid-range mobile with a processor MediaTek Dimension 700 which mounts 8 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of storage, expandable via MicroSD.
The Honor Play 6T mounts a 6.74-inch diagonal LCD screen with HD+ resolution that increases the refresh rate up to 90 Hz. Unlike the Pro model, in this terminal the 5-megapixel front camera is located in the drop-shaped notch.
For photography, the Honor Play 6T has a triple camera with 13 megapixel main sensor, a 2-megapixel macro sensor and a third 2-megapixel sensor for portrait mode. These are more lenses than in the Pro model (and with a totally different module design), but with less resolution.
Another aspect in which the Honor Play 6T is technically better than the Pro model is the battery capacity, which reaches up to 5,000mAh. The fast charge is 22.5W. The terminal is launched with Android 11, it has a minijack and the fingerprint reader on one side.
This is the Honor Play 6T Pro
The more complete model of the two that the company has presented is, as expected, the Honor Play 6T Pro, which completely changes the design line to bet on flat edges, like the latest iPhone and many phones Current Androids. The processor is slightly taller too, it’s a MediaTek Dimension 810also with 8 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of storage to choose from, expandable via MicroSD.
The screen is also better. Still with a 6.7-inch diagonal LCD panel, this time the resolution is Full HD+ and always with the refresh rate up to 90 Hz. On this occasion, the 8-megapixel front camera is punched in the display.
With a camera module similar to what one would find in an OPPO, Realme or Vivo, the Honor Play 6T Pro has Fewer lenses, but better resolution. The main sensor is 48 megapixels, with an additional 2 megapixel sensor for portrait mode.
The Honor Play 6T Pro offer is completed with a smaller battery than in the normal model, 4000 mAh, but supports 40W fast charging. The terminal has a mini-jack and integrates the fingerprint reader on the power button.
