Honor Play20C Overview
The Honor Play20C was released on October 6, 2026, as an entry-level phone with one unusual feature: a small 2-inch display on the back, next to the camera, for notifications and framing selfies. The rest of the sheet is budget hardware — a Unisoc T610 chip, a 720p screen and a large 6,000mAh battery. Honor does not sell this model in Pakistan, so the Pakistan price is not yet confirmed.
Key Highlights
- 6.78-inch TFT LCD, 720 x 1576 pixels, 90Hz
- 2-inch secondary rear display
- Unisoc T610 with 3GB or 4GB RAM and up to 128GB storage, microSDXC slot
- 13MP rear camera, 5MP selfie camera
- 6,000mAh battery with 15W charging
- Side-mounted fingerprint reader and a 3.5mm headphone jack
Display and Performance
The 6.78-inch TFT LCD runs at 90Hz but only at 720 x 1576 resolution, so text is visibly less sharp than on Full HD phones. The small rear display is the talking point — it shows the time and notifications and works as a viewfinder for rear-camera selfies. The Unisoc T610 with Android 16 (Go edition) is built for basic apps, calls and messaging.
Cameras and Battery
The rear camera is a single 13MP unit with an LED flash, and the selfie camera is 5MP; both record 1080p video. The 6,000mAh battery is the practical strength here, although 15W charging is slow for a battery this size.
Honor Play20C Price in Pakistan
The price is not yet confirmed. The Play20C is an entry-level model for other markets (expected around BDT 15,000 in Bangladesh), with no Pakistan launch announced. Any local unit would be an import — non-PTA until registered with DIRBS, and without local warranty.
Final Verdict: Should You Buy It in Pakistan?
The rear mini-display is a fun idea and the battery is big, but the 720p screen and entry-level chip date the phone quickly. With no official Pakistan channel, it is hard to recommend importing one; officially launched budget phones offer more for the same money.
