I am thinking of buying Honor Play (Used).I just want to play games.Are their any issues playing games especially PUBG as I would play it like 3-5 hours a day.Would Pubg lag and are their any touch issues.Need serious advice.

    Harry, 21 Mar 2020If Huawei doesnt want to give honor play an android 10, atl... moreAfter Android 10 update I am observing a strange phenomenon on my Honor View 10. We all know after US ban, Huawei and its sub-brand Honor was unable to get Google certification on their devices and subsequently no Google Mobile Services (GMS). That means out of secure Google PlayStore app eco-system.

    Hence Huawei developed the Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) which is a clone of GMS but without the trust we have for Google. It will take them a decade the achieve that trust. It seems after Android 10 update HMS can work alongside GMS. I mean I find both services running in parallel in my View 10, and always get the option in settings as of which one to use. For example do I want Google Assistant to be default or Huawei's App Assistant. Or do I want Google news feed or Huawei news feed. I of-course always choose Google services.

    Yesterday also received another software OTA update on my phone. In India, we already received the Android 10 update on 3rd Feb, 2020 and this new update adds the VoWiFi feature for some carriers and latest security patches for April, 2020. So it seems at least in India, Honor is going to provide two Android version upgrades and three years of security patch updates. Actually they are doing more than that, they are provided us with new features even on the third year. Hats off to Honor for such awesome software support.

    It is sad to hear that Honor Play will not receive any more software updated. I expected two android version upgrades and three years of security patches for Play. Honor is doing it for View 10 but not for Play. But seriously, EMUI 10 on Android 10 is a paradigm shift from EMUI 9. Its a whole new level of software refinement and without a spec of doubt the best Android overlay on any other Chinese phone. It easily beats FuntouchOS of Vivo, ColorOS of Oppo, FlymeOS of Meizu.. any OS from any other Chinese manufacturer. The reason is very simple, Huawei has more money than any of its Chinese competitors and hence more software developers and hence more refined OS. Its really sad if you guys miss the EMUI 10. Its a big miss.

      Glitz, 24 Apr 2020This thing is horrible after past one year old. I bought it... moreBTW today this thing acting up even worse. Despite a gaming phone, it heats up and stuttering when connecting to internet for a medium to low rpg game. Not to mention the usual crash. Kirin is one terrible processor. Never again.

        i think it is not worth the money. There are so many other better phones on the market for the price

          This thing is horrible after past one year old. I bought it few days before 2019 lunar new years so this device is only 1 year and 3 month old. This problem is already happening for a while: sometimes the internet connection speed suddenly down and rendered almost unusable before you restart the device. It used to only happened once every few month but lately it keeps repeating almost everyday.
          It also keep crashing and force closing some apps, which I used to think that it's the apps dev fault but after one year of use I found out that the exact same problem occuring on few other different apps. Seemed like kirin keeps force closing when there's too much to handle, which is not an impressive feat for a kirin 9xx series.

                              If Huawei doesnt want to give honor play an android 10, atleast give its user the dark mode ui. That's the only thing i need on android 10.

The Honor team should at-least provide a display issue fix for Honor Play with a software OTA update. They should ensure all their phones are running optimally no matter which version of Android is present.
