Honor continues to expand its Play 11 lineup in China with the introduction of the new Play 11T. Following the Play 11C, Play 11 Plus, and Play 11 Pro, the latest model arrives with a 120Hz display, a Snapdragon 4 series processor, and a sizeable battery. Here is a closer look at what the new smartphone offers.
Honor Play 11T specifications and features
The Honor Play 11T features a 6.61 inch TFT LCD with a 1604 x 720 resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and 120Hz refresh rate. The panel can reach a peak brightness of 1,010 nits and includes DC dimming, software based low blue light reduction, e book mode, and other features designed to make viewing more comfortable.
Powering the smartphone is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 chipset, while the software side is handled by MagicOS 10 based on Android 16. Buyers can choose between 6GB and 8GB of RAM, along with either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. Honor RAM Turbo also provides additional virtual memory when needed.
The Play 11T packs a large 7,500mAh battery and supports 45W wired charging. For photography, it has a 13 megapixel f/2.2 rear camera with autofocus and a 5 megapixel f/2.2 front camera. Other features include a side mounted fingerprint scanner, 5G, Wi Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, face recognition, and a USB Type C port. There is no 3.5mm headphone jack.
Durability is another area of focus. The phone carries an IP64 rating for protection against dust and water and has received SGS five star drop and compression certification. Honor says it can survive drops from heights of up to 1.8 metres. The device weighs 205g and measures 163.9 x 75.9 x 8.29mm.
Honor Play 11T price and availability
The Honor Play 11T is offered in four memory and storage configurations: 6GB + 128GB, 6GB + 256GB, 8GB + 128GB, and 8GB + 256GB. Their prices are approximately $210, $255, $240, and $285, respectively.
The smartphone is available in Black, Gold, and Blue finishes. Honor has not yet announced whether the Play 11T will be introduced outside the Chinese market.
The Play 11T’s large battery and modest hardware suggest a focus on endurance rather than performance, making its likely real-world battery life and charging trade-offs the key question for buyers.
