Manila, Philippines, February 20, 2025 – Following the remarkable success of the HONOR X9c 5G, HONOR Philippines, a leading smart device provider, has introduced its latest offering: the best-value rugged smartphone, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G. It is available exclusively on Shopee for just Php 10,799 during the Shopee 3.3 Super Brand Marathon. 



 "We celebrate the huge success of HONOR X9c 5G with the release of our HONOR X9c Smart 5G. With its equally durable hardware matched with high-performing software, we are confident that HONOR fans and tech enthusiasts across the Philippines will truly enjoy it. And we are very proud to be partnering with Shopee again for a very special price on 3.3 so watch out,” said HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng. 


Equally Durable as HONOR X9c 5G 

The HONOR X9c Smart 5G boasts an SGS 5-Star Comprehensive reliability certification, ensuring it can endure drops from up to 2 meters high. It features 360-degree drop resistance and 3000 steel wool scratch resistance on the back, and it has been drop-tested on over 10 surfaces.

On the back, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G utilizes the same Polycarbonate Polymethyl Methacrylate cover for which HONOR is renowned. This design minimizes worries about accidental scratches from everyday items like coins, keys, and keychains.

Regarding water resistance, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G can withstand 5 minutes of immersion in water at a depth of 25cm and 2 minutes at 50cm. Its triple-layer protection technology safeguards the delicate components from water ingress.

Additionally, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G performs well in extreme temperatures, functioning in environments ranging from -30 degrees Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius, reflecting the varied conditions we encounter daily. 

Large-frame Main Camera, Exceptional as Always 

On the back of the HONOR X9c Smart 5G, you'll find the signature profile design. This design features a circular black module housing a dual camera setup: a 108MP Main Camera and a 5MP Ultra-Wide Camera, perfect for your content creation needs. 



HONOR has also introduced AI technology in this price range for the first time, enhancing your photography experience. The AI Night Mode Camera intelligently optimizes exposure and shutter speed in low-light situations, while the AI Motion Sensing Capture feature instantly captures significant moments when motion is detected within the frame. 

Additionally, the HONOR X9c Smart 5G is equipped with the well-known HONOR AI Eraser, allowing users to eliminate undesired photobombers or distracting details from their pictures. 

Super-long Battery Life, Easy Sail Through 

The HONOR smartphone surpasses expectations with a robust 5800mAh battery, providing up to 20 hours of video playback and 42 hours of online music streaming. If you need more time, utilize our low power saving mode and recharge quickly with the 35W HONOR Super Charge. 

In addition to its external durability, HONOR prioritizes battery longevity; even after 1000 cycles or approximately 3 years, the battery will still retain 80% of its capacity. 

These impressive features are housed in an elegant yet resilient design. At just 7.88 mm, it is slim and comfortable to hold. Its curved edge and flat front glass panel enhance the user experience.  

The HONOR X9c Smart 5G's front display features high brightness, refresh rate, resolution, and vibrant color reproduction—attributes previously found only in flagship devices. 


Storage and OS 

Enhanced storage and RAM are creating a buzz. 

Enjoy 12GB of Physical RAM, complemented by an additional 12GB of HONOR Turbo RAM, totaling 24GB of RAM, alongside a reliable 256GB of storage for all your content.
