Design and Build
The Honor Play 3 offers a modern design with a minimalist approach. It measures 159.8 x 76.1 x 8.1 mm and weighs 176 grams, making it fairly comfortable to hold and use. The phone features a glass front, with the back and frame constructed of plastic, offering a lightweight feel. Though plastic might not offer the same premium feel as metal or glass, it helps keep the device affordable. The hybrid dual SIM feature is practical, allowing users the flexibility of a secondary SIM or expandable storage via a microSDXC card. Additionally, the Honor Play 3 has an IP5X dust resistance and IPX4 water resistance, providing some protection against the elements typically lacking in budget devices.
