HONOR-X9d-5G-The-Unbreakable-AI-Smartphone
Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR has unveiled the HONOR X9d 5G, a smartphone that defines toughness, endurance, and smart innovation. Designed for explorers and professionals, it blends power, durability, and intelligence to match every lifestyle.
The Fall That Made History

The HONOR X9d 5G stunned the world by earning a Guinness World Record for the Highest Smartphone Drop. It survived a 6.133-meter fall without a single crack. This wasn’t a marketing stunt; it was a statement of engineering mastery. HONOR proved that durability and design can coexist beautifully, reshaping industry standards. The record-breaking drop highlighted that true innovation stands for endurance, not just performance.
Rugged by Design
The HONOR X9d 5G is crafted, not armored. It features a 6-layer drop-resistant structure and Ultra Bounce Anti-Drop Technology 3.0, offering 112% stronger protection than its predecessor. Its reinforced back shell, shock-absorbing bracket, and ultra-deep tempered glass create a unified defense system. Each element disperses impact energy efficiently to prevent damage.

Tested on over ten rough surfaces, including cobblestone, asphalt, and tactile paving, it meets the SGS 5-Star Comprehensive Reliability and Premium Performance Certifications. Certified for 2.5-meter drops, IP69K water resistance, and extreme dust protection, it invites adventure instead of fearing it. The HONOR X9d 5G is a tribute to strength that embraces every element fearlessly.

Tougher Than Tough with a Display Built to Last
The 6.79-inch Eye-Comfort OLED display brings vivid visuals at a 2640 × 1200 resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. With up to 6000 nits HDR brightness, it remains visible even under harsh sunlight. Its ultra-narrow 1.3mm bezels enhance immersion while maintaining elegance.

HONOR’s advanced eye-protection and dynamic dimming technology minimizes strain during long usage. Whether gaming, streaming, or browsing, it ensures a comfortable experience. Built with ultra-tough glass, the display resists scratches and impacts, giving users confidence with every swipe.
Power for Days
The HONOR X9d 5G is powered by an 8300mAh silicon-carbon battery, the largest in its class, delivering up to two days of heavy usage. The self-developed anti-aging algorithm ensures performance longevity, maintaining efficiency for six years.

Multi-point temperature control keeps it stable in extreme climates, from –30°C to 55°C. When the battery runs low, Ultra Power Saving Mode enables up to 60 minutes of calls with just 2% battery. The 66W HONOR SuperCharge ensures rapid refueling for a full day’s use.
Additionally, 7.5W wired reverse charging turns the X9d into a portable power hub for earbuds and wearables, enhancing on-the-go convenience.
Capture Every Moment with Clarity
Photography reaches new heights with the 108MP main camera, featuring a 1/1.67-inch large sensor and OIS + EIS stabilization for precise, steady shots. From night skylines to family portraits, every frame bursts with color and clarity.

A 2MP depth sensor enhances bokeh for beautiful portraits, while the 16MP front camera ensures sharp selfies and crystal-clear video calls. HONOR’s AI Editor transforms editing into storytelling with tools like AI Eraser, AI Cutout, AI Upscale, and AI Remove Reflection. Creativity becomes effortless, turning every shot into a masterpiece.
The Power of Intuitive AI

The HONOR X9d 5G learns how users live and adapts intelligently. AI Call Translation breaks language barriers instantly, enabling smooth communication across borders. AI Summary condenses long meetings into brief highlights, saving time for productivity.
With AI Assistant and Magic Portal 2.0, digital tasks stay seamlessly organized. The system connects apps, files, and ideas fluidly, offering an intuitive experience that feels natural and efficient.
Smart Connectivity and Seamless Ecosystem
Connectivity on the HONOR X9d 5G stays strong with Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, USB Type-C, and NFC for instant mobile payments. The device syncs easily with the HONOR ecosystem, pairing effortlessly with MagicBook laptops and Earbuds X6. File transfers, audio sharing, and device control feel instant and smooth through MagicOS 9.0, extending control to HONOR smart home devices.
