Honor launched the Play11 Plus and Play10 in China, prioritizing extreme endurance over slim design. Both devices feature massive 7,000mAh batteries paired with 45W fast charging. This push for high capacity targets users who prioritize multi-day battery life over the lightweight profiles found in most modern mid-range smartphones.

Play11 Plus uses a MediaTek Dimensity 6500 Elite chip and a 6.6-inch AMOLED screen with 6,500 nits peak brightness. It runs MagicOS 10 based on Android 16 and costs $325 for the 8GB/256GB model. An AI button and an IP66 rating add utility for power users wanting a durable, smart device.

Play10 offers a more affordable path with a Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chipset and a 6.8-inch LCD display. Prices start at $205 for the 8GB/128GB version. While it lacks the AMOLED screen of its sibling, it retains the same battery capacity and a 50MP main camera for basic photography.

Both phones include a one-tap AI key and 5G connectivity. These devices are now available through the official online store in China. Honor is clearly carving out a niche for high-capacity battery phones in the budget and mid-range segments.
