Honor Play 9A: Specifications and Features

Starting with the display of the device, the Honor Play 9A features a 6.3-inch HD+ LCD panel with a 720p+ resolution and a 20:9 aspect ratio. The Honor Play 9A features a waterdrop notch at the top of the display, which makes room for the selfie camera of the device. The selfie camera is an 8MP unit and can capture 1080 pixel videos. Moving around on the rear of the device, the Honor Play 9A features a dual camera setup, which includes a 13MP primary camera with f/1.8 aperture and a 2MP depth sensor for portrait images.

Under the hood, the Honor Play 9A is powered by a MediaTek Helio P35 processor (which has eight Cortex-A53 CPU cores and a PowerVR GE8320 GPU). The processor is assisted by 4GB of RAM and up to 128GB of onboard storage. If 128GB of storage does not suffice for your media consumption needs, the same can be topped up all the way up to 512GB with the help of an external SD card.

In the software department, the Honor Play 9A runs on the latest Android 10 OS out of the box with the company’s Magic UI 3.0.1 skin baked on top of it. As far as the battery of the device is concerned, the Honor Play 9A is fueled by a large 5,000mAh battery, which has provision for 10W charging. Sadly, there is no fast charging support for the Honor Play 9A. There is no USB Type-C charging port either and the Honor Play 9A relies on the dated microUSB port instead. Thankfully enough, there is at least a 3.5mm headphone jack. The Honor Play 9A features Huawei’s Histen 6.0 audio technology and promises 88dB of music.
