The official announcement of the Honor Play5 will be released on May 18. Before the release, let's take a look back at the Play series mobile phones in previous years. The Honor Play series was born in 2018, which is the era of glory, and the location of its birth is Coldplay Technology, which is committed to creating coolplay technology products that young people like.
, as a brand-new Play mobile phone at that time, was equipped with the frightening GPU turbo turbocharging technology for the first time, and used the flagship chip Kirin 970 of the year, with a starting price of 1999 yuan, the mobile phone cost performance directly burst, known as the A generation of magic machines, which caused a lot of heat in the mobile phone market at that time. It can be said that among the mobile phones in the same column with the price of 2,000 yuan in that year, the Honor Play is definitely a preferred model.
However, since the release of the first-generation Play model, the subsequent update and iterative products have been in a tepid stage, and even gradually declined. In particular, the second-generation Honor Play3 series mobile phones are priced at 999 yuan, equipped with Kirin 710 processor, and the performance is directly reduced. It is really puzzling, and this also makes the Play series a thousand-yuan machine, and the market response is also relatively general.
Subsequently, Honor brought Honor Play4T series mobile phones, including Honor Play4T and Play4T Pro, among which Play4T is equipped with HiSilicon Kirin 710A, while Play4T Pro uses Kirin 810 processor , and the price is also in the thousand yuan range .
then brought the Honor Play4 series of mobile phones, of which Play4 uses the 7nm process Dimensity 800 5G processor, 7nm packaging technology, and its performance is at the mid-range level.The Honor Play4 Pro uses the Kirin 990 processor and is equipped with a new cooling system. What is more interesting is that the Honor Play4 Pro provides a version that supports temperature measurement, adding an infrared temperature sensor to support non-contact temperature measurement , did cause a second sensation at the time.
In April of this year, Honor brought the first Play series mobile phone after independence, the Honor Play5T Vitality Edition, with a 13-megapixel rear quad-camera and a 1600*720 screen resolution, equipped with MediaTek P35 The processor performance even regressed again. No matter what aspect it is, it can't evoke people's desire to buy. It even gives the illusion that this series of mobile phones has been abandoned. The only advantage may be the 5000mAh battery, which can provide long-lasting battery life.
From the above development history of the Honor Play series, it is not difficult to see that the Honor Play series is just going further and further on the road of decline, which really corresponds to the saying that debuted as is the peak. And and now Honor Play5 has been officially announced to be released on May 18. According to the official warm-up poster, the front of Honor Play5 is equipped with water drop screen , and the back is equipped with a matrix four-camera module, which also provides light green and Light purple two colors.
According to previously exposed news, the front screen of Honor Play5 is 6.53 inches, and the rear four cameras are 64-megapixel main camera and 8-megapixel and two 2-megapixel sub-cameras. In terms of performance, Honor Play5 may be equipped with Dimensity 800U processor, the performance is average. In addition, the fuselage has a built-in 3800mAh battery, and the battery life is worrying, but it supports 66W flash charging, and the charging speed will be faster.
Up to now, the Honor Play series mobile phone seems to have lost its original intention at the beginning of its creation. In other words, is the Honor Play5 still the cool mobile phone suitable for young people?
