It is powered by a octa-core (4x1.4GHz and 4x1.1GHz) Snapdragon 435 SoC paired with a 3GB RAM and Adreno 505 GPU. To compare, the Nubia M2 Lite is powered by the Helio P10 chipset with 3GB RAM and 4GB RAM variants. The smartphone offers 32GB of internal storage with the option to expand further via a microSD card slot (up to 128GB).

As for optics, the Nubia M2 Play sports a 13-megapixel main Sony CMOS sensor at the back with f/2.2 aperture and hybrid autofocus.
