Huawei’s subsidiary, Honor, is preparing to launch a new, more durable device, likely to be named the Honor X9c. This announcement comes as a follow-up to last year’s Honor X9b, a mid-range smartphone that gained attention for its impressive drop protection features.
The X9b featured an “Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Display,” incorporating shock-absorbing materials that, according to Honor, could withstand falls from heights of up to 1.5 meters. While details about the upcoming X9c remain scarce, teasers from Honor Malaysia suggest that this new model will surpass its predecessor in structural integrity. Although no images of the device have been released, promotional materials allude to the phone’s name and enhanced durability.
Like its predecessor, the X9c is expected to be positioned in the mid-range market segment. As more information becomes available about this durable new offering from Honor, we will provide timely updates to our readers.
This appears to be the beginning of an extensive teaser campaign from Honor, with more official information expected to be released soon. Last year’s Honor X9b was powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, featuring a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 1220 x 2652px resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 1200 nits peak brightness. It also boasted a 108 MP main camera, accompanied by a 5MP ultrawide unit and a 2MP macro shooter. The device was equipped with a massive 5,800 mAh battery and 35W wired charging support.
