What we like about Honor Play 60 Plus (12GB + 512GB)

  • Exceptional battery life from a large 6,000mAh capacity
  • Smooth performance in daily tasks with 12GB of RAM
  • High storage capacity options up to 512GB
  • Fluid visual experience with a 120Hz refresh rate display
  • Includes a 3.5mm headphone jack
  • IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance, which is uncommon in its price bracket
  • Support for 5G connectivity

What we don't like about Honor Play 60 Plus (12GB + 512GB)

  • Low display resolution (HD+/720p) on a large 6.77-inch screen
  • Uses a TFT LCD panel instead of the more common IPS or AMOLED
  • Basic camera system with a 5MP front sensor and a low-detail 50MP rear setup
  • Slow 35W wired charging for such a large battery
  • Lacks NFC support for contactless payments
  • Relatively weak GPU (Adreno 613) for demanding gaming

Verdict

The Honor Play 60 Plus (12GB + 512GB variant) is a mid-range smartphone prioritizing a spacious display and significant storage capacity. Key characteristics include a 6.78-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a capable 50MP main camera system, and a robust 6000mAh battery supporting 35W wired charging. Its main pros are the massive 512GB of internal storage combined with 12GB RAM for smooth multitasking, the expansive battery life, and modern Android 14 software. The primary cons are that it utilizes a midrange Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor, which isn't suited for high-end gaming, and it lacks an AMOLED display panel.
