It’s finally here, six months after its debut in China, the Honor 9X has been officially launched in India as promised. The mid-ranger will compete with the likes of the Realme 5 Pro and Redmi Note 8 Pro.
The Honor 9X though offers a much better design with a nearly bezel-less display with a 6.59-inches Full HD+ screen and a 16MP popup selfie camera. The phone runs on EMUI 9.1.1 based on Android 9 Pie, and is powered by an octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 810 processor that’s paired with 4GB/6GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB of storage.
The Honor 9X packs a 4000mAh battery which can be topped up using the USB Type-C port. The device’s camera department consists of a 48MP main camera with an f/1.8 aperture along with a 2MP depth sensor that has an f/2.4 aperture, and an LED flash. Instead of a rear placed sensor, the phone features a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
