The HONOR X9d is the next step in the journey of focusing on the durability of the X9 series that has attracted attention in the Vietnamese market. From the X9a with its super durable screen, the X9b with comprehensive drop resistance, to the X9c with IP65M water resistance, the new generation continues to raise the protection structure to a higher level. Based on initial experiences, the X9d shows its orientation as a smartphone that prioritizes long-term use efficiency, instead of chasing trendy parameters such as multi-lens cameras or high-end processing chips.

Design review
The HONOR X9d feels more premium than previous generations thanks to its leather-like back. The surface is textured, making it resistant to fingerprints and feels quite comfortable to hold, especially when used for long periods of time. The red version has a strong contrast, combined with the metal logo in the center, creating a strong highlight.

With a 120 Hz AMOLED screen and high brightness, users can use it comfortably in many different lighting conditions.

The frame of the device uses a glossy finish, a rather dark gold tone, following the aesthetic direction of "imitation metal" often seen on devices that focus on durability. From the side view, it is easy to see that the device has a sturdy structure, the button positions are neatly placed on one side, making it easier for users to operate.

The front of the X9d is a flat screen with thin, even edges and a hole-punch camera in the middle. When held outdoors, the actual brightness is good, suitable for users who often use the device under strong sunlight - situations that are weaknesses of popular smartphones.
The circular camera cluster on the back continues to be the distinctive feature of the X9 series. The large frame design is finished in two layers, creating a sense of synchronization with the color of the body. The triple camera cluster is placed symmetrically with the flash. This arrangement is not new, but it brings a more balanced overall image compared to rectangular camera clusters in the same segment.
Performance evaluation
In real-life experience, the HONOR X9d shows a clear orientation towards long-term performance instead of chasing pure hardware power. The first and most important highlight lies in the 8,300 mAh battery - a rare level in the mid-range segment.
Silicon-carbon battery technology increases storage density and reduces degradation over time, thereby helping users maintain long operating times without needing to recharge in between. Mixed tests including watching videos , taking photos, locating and browsing social networks show that the device consumes little energy, enough to meet the needs of more than a day of use. 66W fast charging helps shorten the battery recharge time, serving well in situations that need to be quickly replenished before moving.



Hardware and battery specifications on HONOR X9d

In terms of processing performance, the HONOR X9d uses a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor that aims for stability, along with the MagicOS 9 operating system (based on Android 15), which provides good response speed when switching between applications, browsing the web, or watching videos. The device responds well to common tasks and light gaming. This is not a configuration for heavy processing needs, but is completely suitable for users who prioritize durability and battery life over graphics performance.
In addition, the camera system of the device plays a supporting role in the experience instead of creating a deep highlight. The 108 MP main camera with integrated OIS provides good enough image quality in bright conditions, while the 5 MP wide-angle camera and 16 MP front camera meet the needs of recording daily moments, taking landscape photos or selfies. Overall, this quality level is suitable for the price range and product orientation.
HONOR X9d General Review
HONOR X9d is aimed at young users and manual workers who need a durable, stable and long-lasting device. 8,300 mAh battery, multi-level water and dust resistance and sturdy design help the device meet daily usage needs, especially for those who prioritize reliability over high configuration. Performance and camera are at a sufficient level, suitable for students, office workers or people who travel frequently. Overall, X9d is a balanced choice for those who want a smartphone to use safely for a long time.
