    Huawei Honor series are one of the best seller of Huawei including Huawei Honor Play 4X, Huawei Honor 4C, 4A, Honor 4 due to the competitive price and configuration. Now Huawei Honor has released the new member, Huawei Honor Play 5A smartphone which is also the budget phone to kill Xiaomi Redmi 3 and Meizu M3 smartphone. So can Huawei Honor Play 5A not only beat those same level smartphones in configuration, but also do well in its quality?  So let’s start to test Huawei Honor Play 5A.

    Design

    1465721877888_副本 1465721877526_副本

    Huawei Honor 5A ‘s highlight is in the classic 3D texture back cover with British style and it has also added plastic material for more beautiful design. 3D texture back cover can reflect different kinds of quality feeling from different angle. The texture of the bump can also strengthen the grip feeling, not easy for slipping or get fingerprint. Meanwhile, it has also provided many versions with different colors to meet students’ needs.

    It has 5.5inch waterfall black screen for better screen light, 178 degree wide viewing angle, 1000:1 contrast can offer the excellent image quality, 10 points touch also plays very important role for playing games. The big black edge on the screen can have a good control for the screen on or screen dead problem.

    1465721877741_副本

    We can see the Honor logo under the screen which has changed since Huawei Honor V8, there are advantages and disadvantages in the design of the virtual button and physical button. So it will depend on customers’ interest. Huawei Honor 5A virtual button can hide freely, which can make up the problem for occupying the screen place.

    1465721877226_副本

    It uses light metallic paint processing in the side body. Meanwhile, it holds very smoothly. In some details, it uses symmetrical design such as speaker at the bottom and microphone, BOX integration design and sound out design which make Huawei Honor 5A full of nice performance.

    1465721877110_副本

    Its back cover can be removed freely, and it has offered three card slot, two SIM slot and one MicroSD slot which means we can not only enjoy dual sim card, dual standby, but also get microSD card for storage expansion. Huawei Honor 5A also provides netcom version to achieve inserting two SIM cards freely, and its second card can support WCDMA and CDMA voice network.

    1465721877250_副本

    Huawei Honor 5A has use the main antenna and diversity antenna combined with dual antenna technology, MDA antenna made of aluminum alloy can ensure the signal reception ability,  in the underground garage and enclosed elevator, no signal will not happen, which bring nice network experience like flagship smartphone.

    Hardware

    1465721877553 1465721877169

    Because of positioning, Huawei Honor 5A has not so outstanding hardware. We got the netcom version with Snapdragon 617 Octa core processor, 1.5Ghz frequency, which is often used in the mid-range or high-end smartphone, such as Galaxy C5, HTC One A9. It has RAM 2GB, ROM 16GB to support expansion.

    Antutu

    14657218775201465721877722

    According to Antutu test, the final score is 44984, so it can be proved it will be a good phone for daily use.

    We use Honor Play 5A to watch tv online, play games online, the overall result is quite satisfied. There is no non-fluent and over heating problem. We believe it can meet most students’ need except playing 2K video and some large 3D games.

    Battery

    As for battery,  Huawei Honor 5A battery life makes us impressive, it is equipped with 3100mAh battery, couple with the power-saving optimization, it can be used at least two whole days under our heavy use. We have tested calling, chatting, watching games, playing games, etc. So the battery life can be one of the highlights of Huawei honor 5A.

    1465721877311

    1465721877105

    In OS, Honor 5A uses EMUI4.1 OS based on Android6.0 OS, if you are Huawei phone user, it will be not strange about this OS. EMUI has updated and used for long time, it has done well in its convenience and stability. So the overall function is very complete.

    1465721877387 1465721877188

    Smart Scene and LINK+ has become the special feature of EMUI, the former can record users’ behavior smartly and then remind properly, and the latter can improve users’ network experience.

    14657218771431465721877227

    The student mode and simple style of Huawei honor 5A make children and old people use conveniently. The former can limit your children to play smartphones’ time and search the Internet safely, block unhealthy websites, which let children use smartphone healthily.

    1465721877212 1465721877584

    Camera

    1465721877876 1465721877729

Huawei honor 5A performs well in dual camera, it has 8MP front camera, F2.0 aperture, 27mm wide viewing angle, 4P lens and 10 level smart beautification. The back camera has 13MP Sony OV sensor, F2.0 aperture, 28mm wide viewing angle, 5P lens, 7cm macro taking pictures, and other configuration, which plays important role in its hardware.
