The Honor Play 8T might be available in China this week. There has been no official announcement from the Chinese tech company on the handset's release date, but a purported official poster has suddenly appeared online, revealing the smartphone's debut date, design, and a few characteristics. The Honor Play 8T appears to have a hole punch display. It is expected to include a dual back camera setup headlined by a 50-megapixel main camera, as well as a 6,000mAh battery.

According to a Weibo user, the Honor Play 8T will be on sale in China on October 18. According to the graphic, the phone would have a display with a hole punch cutout for the front camera and a dual back camera unit. The ad also provides a few phone specs.

According to the ad, the phone would have a 6,000mAh battery. It may also include a 50-megapixel main back camera. The Honor Play 8T may come with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The smartphone's display is capable of up to 850 nits of peak brightness.
