Priced at PHP 18,999, the smartphone stands out with its massive 8,300mAh Silicon-Carbon battery and full IP69K water and dust resistance – all housed in a slim 7.76mm chassis.

Durability and Display

The X9d prioritizes build quality, with an IP69K rating that safeguards it against high-pressure, high-temperature water jets and dust – an upgrade from the standard IP68 protection found in most flagship devices.

On the front, it features a 6.79-inch AMOLED display protected by Aluminosilicate glass. The panel supports a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution (2640 x 1200 pixels), and uses 3,840Hz PWM dimming to minimize eye strain.

Performance and Cameras

Under the hood, the X9d is powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 – a 4nm octa-core chipset clocked at 2.3GHz. It is available in a single configuration: 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The device runs on Android 15 with MagicOS 9.0 pre-installed.

For photography, the rear camera setup includes a 108MP main sensor with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), paired with a 5MP ultra-wide-angle lens. Selfies are handled by a 16MP front-facing camera.

Pricing and the “Cybertruck” Promo

The HONOR X9d 5G has a suggested retail price of PHP 18,999 and is available in four color options: Reddish Brown, Midnight Black, Sunrise Gold, and Forest Green.
