The HONOR X9b 5G, the brand’s newest midrange smartphone, has kicked off its first day sale at the newly opened HONOR experience store in SM Angono.

First making its debut last January 12, the HONOR X9b 5G is a direct upgrade from the X9a 5G. The smartphone updates its internals with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage while its 108MP f/1.75 main camera has a significant pixel count increase from its prdecessor’s 64MP f/1.8 primary lens.

Durability is also a primary driver for the X9b 5G. The company has equipped it with an “Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Display 360° Anti-Drop Protection” that reinforces its 6.78-inch FullHD+ 120Hz screen, frame, and internal compartments to make it tougher than your average smartphone.

The smartphone’s first day sale was marked with another milestone for the brand – the opening of their SM Center Angono Experience Store. Its community and fans supported the launch by lining up for the HONOR X9b 5G at stores throughout the metro.

The HONOR X9b 5G is now available in the Philippines for PhP 16,990. You can choose from 3 colorways: Midnight Black, Emerald Green, and Sunrise Orange with Vegan Leather. Aside from physical stores nationwide, you can also get it via Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok.

Additionally, the smartphone can also be had via Home Credit and Skyro for 0% interest. Globe Postpaid subscribers can apply or upgrade to GPlan 1299 with Unli All-Net Calls and Text, and 8GB All-Access Data for a one-time cash out of PhP 3,300.
