Honor Play vs Xiaomi Mi A2

[AlbertFernandez]

But, Honor should take pointers and remove EMUI.

 

[PrashantK007]

Xiaomi did delete their twitter poll where people preferred android one over MIUI.

Yea bro, even though people voted for Android One, Xiaomi wants to use MIUI everywhere.

SD625 and MIUI are standard for Xiaomi phones these days.

 

[Charchit Sharma]

They also reduce the battery capacity in doing so. I'd never consider a phone without 3.5 mm jack (even if I have wireless earphones)

Same goes for me as well.

Qualcomm might be selling S625 for cheap.

They might've sold SD625 to Xiaomi on a per kg basis rather than on a per piece basis.

• GPU Turbo is also not an exclusive feature - it will roll it out to existing phones like the Honor 10, Honor View 10, Honor 9 Lite and Honor 7X via a software update - so if you can afford the Honor View 10, it might be a better choice, since the Honor Play is basically a toned down version of the Honor View 10 (the View 10 especially has an edge with its cameras)

Why does it seem like something you said @SaiyanGoku ?

How'd I know? I don't even care about GPU "turbo".

Honor Play has better Kirin 970 compared to Snapdragon 660 in MI A2.

 

[krunalp]

MI A2 comes with Android One program and promises faster Android updates whereas honor play comes with Emui which has no surety of updates.

 

[krunalp]

Honor Play has a 3.5 mm jack but Mi A2 compromises with a single usb-c port for both charging and audio output.

 

[krunalp]

Mi A2 has a better looking design which doesn't looks odd to see. Honor play has a notch design to have more screen space.

 

[mrinalkumari]

Honor play has a larger 6.3" screen but with a notch.

While the mid-range segment is populated by devices running the power-efficient Snapdragon 636, Xiaomi has decided to go with Qualcomm's mid-range powerhouse Snapdragon 660 for the Mi A2. The octa-core processor features four Kryo cores clocked at 2.2 GHz and another four at 1.8 GHz.

If they went with sd636, nobody would buy it over RN5 Pro. Heck, even with SD660, it isn't worth the price.

MI A2 runs better on android one than Honor play on Emui.

 

[lucifer666]

I think Honor Play can be better if Honor used Android One because we know EMUI updates are not regular.

 

[lucifer666]

Honor play has 3.5 mm jack while Xiaomi removes it from Mi A2.

 

[lucifer666]

GPU turbo on Honor Play promises massive gain in games and reduced battery drain.
