HONOR Malaysia has unveiled the game-changing HONOR X9b 5G. With a pre-order price of RM 1,499 from November 1st to 9th, 2023. It’s a smartphone that is literally hard to beat.
The HONOR X9b comes with smashing durability thanks to its Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Technology. The hallmark feature is made possible thanks to a three-layer screen reinforcement, buffer protection, and sealing protection. The innovative cushioning materials boost shock absorption by 1.2 times, ensuring that your phone can withstand drops from up to 1.5 meters and all angles. The HONOR X9b 5G is the world’s first phone to achieve the 5-star All-angle Drop Resistance Certification from Switzerland’s SGS.
The phone’s body itself is light, coming in at only 185g. However, the HONOR X9b 5G boasts a substantial 5800mAh battery. With this powerhouse, you can enjoy three days of usage on a single charge, making it a reliable companion for work, play, and entertainment. HONOR is also claiming that the battery will retain 80% of its capacity after 1,000 charge cycles.
The HONOR X9b 5G comes with 12GB LPDDR4X RAM. This can be extended with virtual RAM Turbo by an additional 8GB. While this technology does give you a whopping 20GB of RAM, it also requires that you sacrifice 8GB of the 256GB internal storage. The storage on the X9b uses UFS 3.1 technology which is known for its speed.
When it comes to the display, the HONOR X9b 5G features a 6.78-inch AMOLED Curved Display with 1.5K resolution. This display covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and can produce over 1.07 billion colours. The phone is designed for the always-on generation, offering features like 1920Hz PWM Dimming, Low Blue Light, Dynamic Dimming, and Circadian Night Display for eye protection during extended screen time.
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the HONOR X9b 5G’s camera setup. It boasts a triple camera setup with a main 108-megapixel sensor, a 5-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. The 108-megapixel sensor features a large 1/1.67-inch sensor and an f/1.75 aperture for capturing more light and producing clear, detailed images.
The Honor X9b is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 Chipset. The setup should deliver ample performance for a device at the price point of the X9b. Running the latest MagicOS 7.2 based on Android 13, it offers upgraded features like the HONOR Docs Suite for an intelligent and convenient remote working experience.
You’ll be able to make a statement with the Honor X9b’s three colour options: Sunrise Orange, Titanium Silver, and Midnight Black. The Sunrise Orange features a sleek leather finish, offering a premium touch. All three finishes are fingerprint-resistant, maintaining the phone’s elegant appearance.
