Discover the Unbreakable AI Smartphone That Can Survive Almost Anything

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – November 19, 2024: In case you missed it, HONOR just announced the upcoming launch of The Unbreakable AI Smartphone[1], HONOR X9c. Following the success of the HONOR X9a and HONOR X9b, this series continues to impress with its durable features. With each new edition, HONOR continues to enhance durability, reflecting its commitment as a human-centric brand that understands consumers’ need for a phone that can withstand wear and tear, as well as resist water, drops, and heat.

New Generation of HONOR Drop-Resistant Design

The new HONOR X9c features the latest HONOR Drop-Resistant Design, which can resist drops from up to 2 meters[2], keeping the phone safe during accidental falls. The scratch-resistant glass and back shield provide strong protection all around. Plus, the special curve design offers 3D protection for the corners, guarding against impacts from any angle. The device features improved scratch resistance, easily handling everyday items such as keys and coins without significant damage.

Whether it encounters hard surfaces like marble, cobblestone, or even asphalt, this smartphone is engineered to withstand the rigors of everyday life, ensuring it remains intact and fully functional no matter the challenge.

Designed for Extreme Temperatures

In the Middle East, the weather can get extremely hot, especially in July and August, which can affect electronic devices and HONOR always keeps users’ needs and their environments in mind. To ensure outstanding durability and protection against damage, the battery features an Armor-level Protective Coating that works with the HONOR Power Management System for added safety.

In extreme conditions, this design keeps the positive and negative parts of the battery separate, which adds extra protection. The battery includes multi-point temperature monitoring that intelligently adjusts the charging strategy based on temperature variations, maximizing safety during use. With an operating range of -30°C to 55°C[3], the battery performs well in tough conditions, offering up to 30 hours of audio calls at 55°C[4], showing its impressive endurance even in extremely hot environments.

You can make audio calls or stream videos on the HONOR X9c in temperature up to 55°C[5], and the device will perform reliably in hot conditions.

Water-Resistance for a Splash-Ready Experience

Moving to water-resistance capabilities, HONOR X9c has a special three-layer waterproof design that protects it from water all around. The first layer has a waterproof ring on the outside, the second layer seals off the sensitive parts inside, and the third layer covers the main components tightly.

With an IP65M rating[6] for water and dust resistance, the HONOR X9c has been tested to work even after being in 25 cm of water for up to 5 minutes [7], so you don’t have to worry about accidental drops in water. Plus, you can use the phone with wet hands, making it easy to use even when your hands are wet or greasy.

The HONOR X9c is clearly designed to tackle life’s toughest challenges, making it the ideal smartphone for those who are always on the move. With advanced features that protect against drops, extreme heat, and water, this phone ensures you stay connected no matter the circumstances. Whether you’re at the beach, hiking, or just running errands, the HONOR X9c has your back. Built for everyday situations, the HONOR X9c proves resilient against accidental bumps, liquid spills, and general wear and tear during daily activities like commuting and cooking.  Verified by the SGS Five-Star comprehensive reliability certification[8], the HONOR X9c distinguishes itself from other smartphones with its outstanding protection and durability.

Color, Price and Availability  Catering to users’ diverse style preferences, the HONOR X9c is available in four captivating colorways: Titanium Purple, Sunrise Orange, Titanium Black and Jade Cyan. HONOR X9c will be available to pre-order soon for an affordable price and exciting gifts.
