HONOR Philippines has launched a new budget-friendly smartphone, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G.
A cheaper alternative to the successful HONOR X9c, the new HONOR X9c Smart 5G has a toned-down MediaTek Dimensity 7025 octa-core processor, with a large 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
The screen has been downgraded to an IPS panel from AMOLED, but still has a pixel-dense FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate.
We still have a sharp 108-megapixel main camera sans the OIS, and 5-megapixel ultrawide shooter. A 16-megapixel selfie camera is still on the front.
The X9c Smart 5G is still drop resistant receiving an SGS 5-star Comprehensive Reliability rating. It can also withstand accidental water splashes.
For the battery, we have a large 5,800mAh capacity paired with 35W wired and 5W reverse wired charging.
The HONOR X9c Smart 5G is exclusively available on Shopee Philippines with an SRP of Php13,999. For a limited time, you can get it at the Shopee 3.3 sale for only Php10,799.
