Honor has introduced a new upper-midrange smartphone that will impress not only with its specs, but also with extreme durability. Honor X9D 5G is equipped with a powerful Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset, a huge 8300 mAh battery, and an interesting AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. What’s more, it’s one of the few smartphones that has official durability certifications: IP66 / IP68 / IP69 and IP69K.

Honor X9D 5G HK version with a charger
TIPExpress delivery from the French warehouse with no customs duties or VAT.
This product will be delivered express from the local Spanish warehouse. Shipping from Spain usually takes 7-10 days and is handled by a courier. On delivery, you don’t pay any extra fees—no customs duty or VAT.
A massive battery and an ultrathin body
Even though the smartphone body houses a huge 8300 mAh battery, Honor managed to keep the thickness to just 7.76 mm. The device weighs only 193 grams including the battery. The battery supports 66 W fast charging, and the box includes an adapter with an output of up to 20V / 3.3A.
In the X9D model, Honor used its own solution called Qinghai Lake Battery, designed to deliver higher density and a longer lifespan compared to standard Li-ion batteries. In practice, this means excellent battery life on a single charge for several days. Two days without charging is a reality, and for less demanding users, it may even be three.
Big AMOLED with high brightness and 3840 Hz PWM
On the front, you get a 6,79″ AMOLED display with a resolution of 2640 x 1200 px. There’s support for 1.07 billion colors, a color gamut of 100% DCI-P3, and a maximum brightness of up to 6000 nits in APL (Average Picture Level) mode. For better eye comfort, you also have 3840 Hz PWM dimming without the risk of flicker, Circadian Night mode, or dynamic dimming. The refresh rate is 120 Hz.
The display is protected by aluminum-silicate glass, which is part of the overall rugged construction. Thanks to this, the smartphone earned an SGS certification for outstanding drop resistance from up to 2.5 meters.
Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 and Android 15 on MagicOS 9.0
At the heart of the device is the new Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, made using a 4 nm process. It has 8 cores (2x Cortex-A720 2.3 GHz / 3x Cortex-A720 2.2 GHz / 4x Cortex-A520 1.8 GHz) and Adreno A810 graphics. This chip delivers enough power for everyday tasks as well as more demanding use.
The operating system is Android 15 with MagicOS 9.0, which brings various AI features and optimizations. You can choose from memory versions of 8/256 GB, 12/256 GB, and 12/512 GB.
108 MPx main camera with OIS
The rear camera setup consists of two sensors. The main one has a resolution of 108 MP (f/1.75) and supports optical image stabilization (OIS). The second sensor is a 5 MP wide-angle lens. Maximum photo resolution is up to 12000 x 9000 px, and video recording is in 4K quality.
The front camera has a resolution of 16 MP (f/2.45) and can record video up to 2520 x 1080 px. Supported modes include portrait, filters, mirror mode, a timer, and gesture controls.
Max specs: NFC, WiFi 6 and 5G
Honor X9D doesn’t miss full 5G network support, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 with LDAC, aptX HD, or AptX Adaptive support. NFC chip for mobile payments is also included, along with accurate GPS navigation (GPS / AGPS / Glonass / BeiDou / Galileo), a USB-C port, and a digital audio output for headphones.
The package is worth highlighting with a fingerprint scanner, complete with a full set of sensors, plus the Honor Sound 7.3 audio system with stereo speakers. The smartphone also supports PC data synchronization via HonorSuite.
