With 10 major enhancements spanning from industry-leading toughness and advanced impact protection to a massive battery and cutting-edge AI imaging, the HONOR X9d 5G is engineered to keep up with every aspect of Malaysian’s busy life. Below are the key upgrades that make the HONOR X9d 5G a true game-changer in durability and performance.
Comprehensive Upgrades In Durability
- Tougher Body for Ultimate Protection
Durability has always been the DNA of the HONOR X9 Series and the HONOR X9d 5G takes it further. It boasts an ultra-deep tempered glass reinforced with Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2, achieving a 31% deeper tempering depth for a stronger, more resilient screen. This means better protection against knocks and drops, keeping the HONOR X9d 5G display safe in tough conditions. Listening to users’ feedback, HONOR switched to a flat display design on the HONOR X9d 5G, which further enhances durability even more compared to curved screens, making the smartphone tougher and more practical daily use.
- Safer Inside with Advanced Impact Absorption
Today, HONOR is redefining smartphone durability by addressing a critical yet often overlooked issue: internal damage, which makes up 40% of all smartphone repairs. The real weakness isn’t just on the surface, it’s what’s inside that counts. Inspired by automotive safety, where airbags protect passengers rather than just the car’s exterior, HONOR developed the industry’s first aerospace-grade non-Newtonian fluid layer. This advanced material remains soft during normal use but instantly hardens on impact, providing up to 300% greater shock absorption to protect vital internal components.
Building on this, HONOR introduced a new structural design inspired by bulletproof technology, featuring a 6-layer shock-absorption framework protected by 8 industry patents. Together, these innovations deliver a 112% improvement in overall shock protection, setting a new benchmark for durability that safeguards the device from the inside out.
- Best-in-Class Waterproof and Dustproof Performance
Water and dust pose hidden threats to a smartphone’s internals that many users may not be aware of. For the first time in the X Series, the HONOR X9d 5G achieves IP69K industrial-grade water resistance, surpassing the previous IP66 and IP68 certifications and far exceeding the IP65M rating of the X9c 5G. This means the device can withstand extreme conditions such as immersion underwater at 6 meters, high-temperature splashes at 85°C, exposure to 18 types of liquids, and even 30-day submersion in 1-meter water.
Adding to its resilience, the innovative Drainage and Dust Removal function uses vibrations to expel moisture and debris from ports, keeping the phone clean and fully functional even after exposure to water or dusty environments like construction sites or beaches. Additionally, the HONOR X9d 5G includes AI Heavy Rain Touch and AI Glove Touch feature, ensuring the screen remains responsive in wet or gloved conditions.
More Assurance for a Worry-Free Experience
Combining advanced technologies to resist scratches, drops, water damage and dust, the HONOR X9d 5G is the first smartphone to earn the prestigious SGS Triple-Resistant Premium Performance Certification. This certification proofs the device can withstand the toughest conditions, delivering exceptional performance and reliability.
With its outstanding durability, HONOR confidently offers a 1-Year Liquid Damage Protection Warranty with the purchase of the X9d 5G. HONOR is the first smartphone brand in Malaysia to provide this coverage for accidental spills, ensuring users can enjoy their device worry-free.
Comprehensive Upgrades on Performance
- Largest Battery Capacity in The Industry
When it comes to power, the HONOR X Series has always been a leader in battery capacity. The HONOR X9d 5G takes it even further with a massive 8300mAh battery, a big jump from the previous model’s 6600mAh. This means users can enjoy up to three full days of use on a single charge, plus 7 hours of standby time even when the battery is down to just 2%. Thanks to HONOR’s smart battery technology, the battery stays reliable for up to six years.
Even when the battery is just 2%, don’t worry, the MagicOS 9.0’s Ultra Power Saving Mode provides up to an hour of emergency calls or 24 minutes of WhatsApp messaging. This remarkable battery life has earned the HONOR X9d 5G a record-breaking award for having the most powerful smartphone battery in the industry. Complementing this endurance, the device supports 66W HONOR SuperCharge for rapid recharging and 7.5W reverse charging, allowing it to double as a portable power bank for other devices.
- More AI Imaging Tools
The HONOR X9d 5G continues to impress with its 108MP Ultra-Sensing Camera featuring a large 1/1.67-inch sensor that captures vivid, lifelike details in any lighting condition. Enhanced with OIS + EIS stabilization, every photo and video is sharp and steady. The device also offers a suite of powerful AI imaging tools, including AI Eraser, AI Cutout, AI Outpainting, AI Upscale, and AI Remove Reflection that empower users to instantly refine and perfect their images. For creative expression, it supports 4K HD Moving Photo Collage and seamless cross-platform sharing via HONOR Connection with iOS devices, making photography and sharing effortless and fun.
- Better Industry Leading Display
The HONOR X9d 5G is equipped with three best in class display technologies. It has a stunning 6.79-inch OLED display that delivers a crisp 1.5K resolution, an impressive 6,000 nits peak brightness, and ultra-smooth 3,840Hz PWM dimming. This combination ensures vibrant visuals and smooth viewing even in bright environments. To protect users’ eyes during extended use, the device incorporates a comprehensive suite of eye comfort features such as Circadian Night Display, AI Defocus Display, Dynamic Dimming, and hardware-level low blue light protection, effectively reducing eye strain and fatigue.
- Cross-Gen Performance
At the heart of the HONOR X9d 5G lies the powerful Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset, a big step from the previous generation, delivering smoother multitasking, faster gaming, and optimized battery efficiency. Designed for longevity, the device promises up to six years of lag-free performance. Thanks to the new Lightweight OS Engine, everything feels faster, apps open twice as quickly, response speed is 71% quicker, and overall operation is 90% smoother. Plus, with the HONOR VC Ice Cooling System, the phone stays cool and steady even during intense use, so it’s always ready to keep up with users.
- Better Sound System
The HONOR X9d 5G takes audio to the next level with its new bass dual speaker system, blasting sound that’s 400% louder than the previous model. Whether gaming, watching movies, or on a call, users can enjoy richer, more immersive audio that makes every moment come alive.
- More Powerful Network
Rounding out its impressive feature set, the HONOR X9d 5G delivers enhanced network performance through an optimized antenna layout that increases the antenna-to-frame ratio to an impressive 93.2%. This engineering feat significantly boosts signal strength and stability, ensuring faster, more reliable connections while streaming, gaming, or working.
Additionally, the device supports instant NFC access, enabling quick and convenient actions such as tapping for door entry or topping up Touch ‘n Go card anytime, anywhere, making everyday tasks effortless and efficient.
