HONOR has added another big-numbers midrange phone to its arsenal, the HONOR X8b.
The HONOR X8b boasts a large 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 2,000-nits peak brightness. There’s a tiny pill-shaped notch on top of the screen for the ultra-sharp 50-megapixel selfie camera and it looks great with HONOR’s Magic Capsule feature, which works like iPhones’ Dynamic Island that shows system and contact notifications.

On the back, we have a sharp 108-megapixel main camera, joined by a low-resolution 5-megapixel ultra-wide, and 2-megapixel macro lens.
Keeping the lights on is a relatively small 4,500mAh battery with a decent 35W charger.

Powering the device is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor, with a single 8GB RAM option, but can be had with 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB of storage.
Like its cousins, it comes with Android 13-based MagicOS 7.2 and an SGS Five-Stary Drop Resistance Certification.

The HONOR X8b has a starting price of MYR999 (~Php11,900) in Malaysia. No word yet if other markets like the Philippines will get it.
