The Glory Play 5X comes with a metal build protected by Gorilla Glass 4. The device weighs 158 grams and is 151 mm long, 76.3 mm wide and 8.15 mm thick. It is offered in two memory variants. The one with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage space costs ¥999 or $157. Meanwhile, the 3GB/32GB version retails for ¥1399, roughly $220. Both variants have support for a micro-SD expansion of up to 128GB.

Its 13-megapixel back camera has an Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) functionality and an f/2.0 aperture. Its five-megapixel front-facing unit takes selfies and video chats also in f/2.0 aperture.
"An f/2.0 lens means that that piece of glass is capable of an f/2.0 aperture. Generally this means that f/2.0 is that widest aperture the lens has.  This type of lens lets a lot of light through and can be called a fast lens in the industry.  Fast lenses are able to offer faster shutter speeds and can work in lower light," explained professional photojournalist Brendan Smialowski on Quora.

Huawei's latest budget offering is available in Silver Dawn, Dark Gray and Sunset Gold. It will officially release on Nov. 3.
