XxAlixX, 07 Aug 2018Salam. I m also living in Saudi Arabia. Thanks for your... moreSince you already got the Nokia 7 Plus, i wouldn't recommend getting this phone unless you can sale it at a good price.

Rather i would recommend you to wait for phones launching next year with SD 855, Kirin 980 and Exynos.

SD 660 is no where close to Kirin 970. Although normal users who just want use their phone for browsing internet, watching movies, chatting might not notice but in opening apps and playing games...boy...that will be incredibly fast.

And as far i have used this phone compared to the OP5T, as per my observation..now the Kirin 970 even defeats the SD835 in some major aspects which was not the case a year back. So.. guess Huawei has done some incredible optimizations!

XxAlixX, 07 Aug 2018Salam. I m also living in Saudi Arabia. Thanks for your... moreSD660 inside Nokia 7 Plus is still very capable, u will see only minor performance if switch to Honor Play, unless u really love the design languange. As an advice, wait for next gen Kirin chipset to feel the difference majorly as Nokia 7 Plus still a new midrange phone.

But there is no denial, the Honor Play is the best for the price.

Hello Everyone,

I Bought Huawei Honor Play three days ago. Here's a little Review for everyone.
**Notices**
1- I am not a professional. I am just an average consumer and all the info below is from my point of view.
2- I have 4GB/64GB COR-L29 Variant. It is not listed in the gsmarena's provided variants.
3- COR-L29 Variant does not have FM Radio.

Price: 1200 Saudi Riyals/ 320 USD/ 275 EUR

Unboxing:
Typical Box Comes with
1- Mobile Phone
2- Typical Silicon Jelly Transparent Case for the device
3- iPod Style Headsets
4- 1m Long USB Type-C Cable
5- Huawei Fast Charger Brick
6- Sim Ejecting Tool
7- Instruction Manual & User Guide
(No screen protector included in the box)

Looks/Feels/Materials
The Device itself looks a lot like iPhoneX. Front Glass (not scratch resistant) and Metal Back (pretty fragile and prone to scratches).
Weight is distributed nicely. Fits in the Palm comfortably. Touch feels better than most IPS-LCDs.

Software:
EMUI 8.2.0 based on Android 8.1. Traditional EMUI look. Customized icons. Haven't faced any Lag/Glitch in three days.

Camera:
Camera performance isn't bad as i expected it to be. Instead it turned out to be pretty good for a Budget phone. The dual Camera Setup isn't really effective. Front Facing Camera is average.

Gaming/Turbo GPU:
The basic reason why i bought this phone was to play High end Android games easily e.g. PUBG and here is my experience so far.
Upon Installing PUBG , it automatically set the Graphics setting to HD-High FPS- Realistic Graphics. But i even raised it upto HDR-Ultra FPS-Realistic Graphics. I played PUBG for about 1 hour (Three Matches) back to back and i never faced any lag. Gameplay was smooth like butter. Excellent speed, excellent accuracy and fun.
Although there was a very minor heat up issue but that was almost unnoticeable and the average battery percentage drop was 10% per PUBG match.

That's all what i pretty much do on my phone and that's all i can tell you guys.
