Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR today unveiled the HONOR X9d 5G in Pakistan, a smartphone that redefines durability, endurance, and user experience. Designed for explorers, professionals, and anyone who lives without limits, the HONOR X9d 5G combines breakthrough toughness, a massive battery, and bold innovation to empower every journey.
The Fall That Made History
It’s not every day a smartphone makes gravity flinch. The HONOR X9d did exactly that, earning a Guinness World Record for the Highest Smartphone Drop and surviving a fall from 6.133 meters without a crack in sight. It wasn’t a stunt; it was a statement. For an industry that long treated durability as the enemy of design, HONOR proved both can coexist beautifully.
The drop was not about spectacle but purpose, showing that true innovation is not only about performance but also about persistence.
Rugged by Design
The HONOR X9d isn’t armored; it’s engineered. With a 6-layer drop-resistant structure and HONOR Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Technology 3.0, it delivers 112% stronger protection than before, turning structure into philosophy.
A shock-absorbing bracket, reinforced back shell, and ultra-deep tempered glass work together like a symphony of defense, dispersing force instead of absorbing damage. Tested to withstand drops on challenging surfaces such as cobblestone, asphalt, tactile paving, and more than 10 types of stone ground, the X9d holds both the SGS Premium Performance Certification and the SGS 5-Star Comprehensive Reliability Certification.
Certified for 2.5-meter drops, IP69K water resistance, and extreme dust endurance, it doesn’t just withstand the elements; it welcomes them.
Tougher Than Tough With a Display Built to Last
The HONOR X9d 5G features a vibrant 6.79-inch Eye-Comfort OLED display with a sharp 2640 × 1200 resolution and an ultra-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Reaching up to 6,000 nits HDR peak brightness, it remains brilliantly visible even under direct sunlight.
With ultra-narrow 1.3mm bezels, the display maximizes immersion while keeping the design sleek. HONOR’s advanced eye-protection and dynamic dimming technologies reduce strain during long sessions, while the ultra-tough glass enhances scratch and impact resistance, delivering confidence in every swipe.
Power for Days
Equipped with an 8,300mAh silicon-carbon battery, the largest in its class, the HONOR X9d 5G delivers exceptional endurance, lasting up to two days of heavy use. Its self-developed anti-aging algorithm ensures up to six years of battery durability, maintaining long-term performance.
Multi-point temperature monitoring allows reliable operation across extreme conditions, from –30°C to 55°C. When power runs low, Ultra Power Saving Mode enables up to 60 minutes of calling at just 2% battery, while 66W HONOR SuperCharge ensures rapid recovery. With 7.5W wired reverse charging, the X9d also powers your earbuds, smartwatch, and other essentials.
Capture Every Moment With Clarity
The HONOR X9d 5G redefines mid-range photography with a 108MP main camera featuring a 1/1.67-inch large sensor and advanced OIS + EIS stabilization for sharp, steady images. From low-light cityscapes to everyday moments, every frame is captured with impressive detail.
A 2MP depth sensor enhances portrait shots, while the 16MP front camera, seamlessly embedded in the display, delivers crisp selfies and clear video calls.
HONOR’s AI Editor elevates creativity with tools like AI Eraser, AI Cutout, AI Outpainting, AI Upscale, and AI Remove Reflection, transforming everyday photos into polished visuals with ease.
The Power of Intuitive AI
The HONOR X9d doesn’t just respond; it understands. Features like AI Call Translation break language barriers, AI Summary turns long meetings into clear insights, and Magic Portal 2.0 connects apps, tasks, and content intelligently. Powered by MagicOS 9.0, the experience feels seamless, proactive, and designed around how people actually live.
Smart Connectivity and Ecosystem
With Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, USB Type-C, and NFC, the HONOR X9d 5G ensures fast and reliable connectivity. It integrates seamlessly with the HONOR ecosystem, enabling effortless file sharing and device control across HONOR laptops, wearables, and audio devices, creating a truly connected experience.
