With minimal fanfare or an official announcement, Honor’s Saudi Arabia division quietly introduced the brand’s latest midrange offering on its website. The Honor X9b serves as a successor to the previously launched Honor X9a in January and brings comprehensive updates.
The X9b features a curved 6.78-inch AMOLED display boasting a 1,200 x 2,652 px resolution and a high 120 Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it is equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.
On the rear, you’ll find a 108MP primary camera, accompanied by a 5MP ultrawide lens and a 2MP macro camera. Meanwhile, a 16MP front-facing camera is discreetly placed within a punch-hole cutout on the front.
On the software front, the device is powered by MagicOS 7.2, built upon Android 13. It is equipped with a substantial 5,800 mAh battery that supports fast charging up to 35W.
The Honor X9b will be available in three colors: Sunrise Orange, Midnight Black, and Emerald Green. However, specific information regarding pricing and availability remains unconfirmed at this time.
