HONOR Philippines officially launched the HONOR X9d 5G on January 9, 2026, and they did it in a way that instantly grabbed attention. Alongside the new phone, the brand announced a massive pre-order giveaway, a Tesla Cybertruck worth ₱17 million.
To join, buyers simply need to pre-order the HONOR X9d 5G priced at ₱17,999 from January 9 to 23. Pre-orders are available at HONOR Experience Stores, partner stores, and major online shopping platforms.
“What better way to prove the toughest phone of 2026 than to put it up against the toughest car, right? Our HONOR X9d 5G vs. Tesla Cybertruck challenge has reached great heights, and we owe it to our HONOR fans for supporting us. That is why we are in fact giving away a Tesla Cybertruck to one lucky HONOR X9d 5G pre-order buyer. While you still have the chance, get the HONOR X9d 5G now,” said HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng.
The launch wasn’t just about the phone. HONOR brought in a strong local lineup, with P-pop groups 6ENSE and YARA performing live. The night peaked with Spongecola as the main act, giving the event a nostalgic OPM touch. Hosting duties were handled by the familiar voices of Boys Night Out—Sam YG, DJ Tony Toni, and Slick Rick—keeping the mood light and fun throughout the program.
Built to Take a Beating
HONOR positions the X9d 5G as its toughest phone yet. It comes with SGS Triple Resistant Premium Performance Certification, covering drop, water, and dust resistance. The phone also carries the SGS 5-Star Comprehensive Reliability Certification, which means it can survive drops of up to 2.5 meters on certain surfaces.
The body uses HONOR Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Technology, combined with a Non-Newtonian fluid layer and ultra-tough deep-tempered glass. According to HONOR, this setup protects the phone from rough stone surfaces and even extreme tests like air-gun impact. It’s clearly designed for users who don’t want to worry too much about daily accidents.

Big Battery, Long-Term Use
One of the standout features of the HONOR X9d 5G is its massive 8300mAh silicon-carbon battery. HONOR calls this the start of the “8 era,” pushing battery capacity beyond what’s common in today’s smartphones. The phone also uses a self-developed anti-aging battery algorithm, with HONOR claiming up to six years of durable battery performance.
For users who value long screen time, fewer charging breaks, and better battery health over time, this is one of the phone’s strongest points.

Camera Made for Everyday and Night Shots
The HONOR X9d 5G packs a 108MP ultra-sensing main camera with a large 1/1.67-inch sensor. This allows it to capture sharp details in daylight and brighter, cleaner shots at night. The camera also uses both OIS and EIS, helping reduce blur and shake when taking photos or videos, especially in low-light scenes.

The HONOR X9d 5G comes in three colors: Reddish Brown, Sunrise Gold, and Midnight Black. It is priced at ₱17,999, with pre-orders running from January 9 to 23.
