Price and Availability details in Nepal
The price of Honor Play has droped to Rs Rs. 28,090. It is available in all the retail stores all over Nepal.
It was the phone of 2018 and early 2019. The camera performance, the OS, the design everything was perfect. Now the question is, is the phone reliable in 2020 also?
You can get a better phone with better specs these days in the same price range or even less. The RAM and internal space aren’t enough and the camera is decent enough if compared to other phones.
Likewise, the notch on the front and thick bezels aren’t the styles of 2020. People are drawn more towards the bezel-less screen with a punch hole in place of the notch. They want the full-screen experience without any disturbance.
Overall it still is a god phone. However, it does not stand a chance in today’s budget smartphone standards.
