HONOR Philippines was set to launch the HONOR X9b 5G, the successor to the HONOR X9a 5G, on January 12, live on Facebook. The phone was tested in an Ultra Tough Challenge camp before its official launch, showcasing its durability and strength.
It is seen to endure a car runover with a heavyweight Hummer as well as an intense smash test relay where participants smashed as many thick tiles as they could in 30 seconds. Guests aimed for the ultra-tough display of HONOR X9b 5G in a competitive paintball, sparring and archery contests. Lastly, HONOR X9b 5G was proven to survive a 50-ft Drop Test! And the question remains. Can it survive a 100-ft drop? The answer became clear last January 12!
“HONOR X9b 5G has been proven durable as the device was carefully studied and has undergone three tempering processes and we are sure that it can surpass the success of its predecessor. Advice for the public though, while we are confident that it will survive intense pressure, intentional dropping and smashing might still cause physical damage to the phone,” said HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng.
The HONOR X9b 5G features a 120Hz curved AMOLED screen and a micron-sized gap structure to ensure a 360° drop resistance. It also comes with a 108MP main camera, 5MP ultra-wide camera and 3x zoom for high quality zoomed shot. This is boosted by its Ultra-durable Battery that has a capacity of 5800 mAh, promising a worry-free user experience with full-day battery life.
All these and more were revealed last January 12, 2024 at 7:00 PM. HONOR fans, and tech aficionados all only expect groundbreaking technology with the arrival of the HONOR X9b 5G.
