Dubai: Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR has announced the official UAE availability of the HONOR X9e Pro. Designed for demanding everyday use, the new smartphone combines 3-metre drop resistance, IP69K water resistance, an industry-leading 11,000mAh battery, a high-brightness display, a 108MP AI Ultra-Clear Camera and Pro AI capabilities.
All-round durability for everyday confidence
Designed to withstand everyday challenges, the HONOR X9e Pro features an advanced impact-resistant structure with reinforced corners, high-strength metal supports and specialised display adhesives. These components help absorb and distribute impact forces, protecting key internal components.
The device offers 3-metre drop resistance and is designed to withstand falls from heights of up to three metres onto smooth marble. It can also withstand drops from up to 1.2 metres at multiple angles.
Protection against water and dust is supported by IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings. Under controlled laboratory conditions, the HONOR X9e Pro has been tested for immersion at depths of up to 10 metres and is designed to withstand hot-water splashes of up to 85°C. Dedicated underwater photography features also allow users to capture images beneath the surface.
Industry’s largest 11,000mAh battery built to go further
Powered by an 11,000mAh HONOR silicon-carbon battery, which the company describes as the industry’s largest, the HONOR X9e Pro is designed to deliver extended battery life across demanding daily activities.
HONOR said battery performance had been validated through its testing at temperatures of up to 55°C. A six-year battery durability design is intended to support reliable performance over an extended period, while the company’s AI Power Saving system optimises energy consumption based on different activities.
The smartphone also supports 80W HONOR SuperCharge and 27W wired reverse charging, allowing users to power compatible smartphones and accessories when a charging outlet is not available.
Industry-leading 108MP AI Ultra-Clear Camera with Pro AI capabilities
The HONOR X9e Pro features a 108MP AI Ultra-Clear Camera with CIPA 6.0-level stabilisation, designed to reduce camera shake and deliver clearer handheld photographs, particularly in low-light conditions and while on the move.
Its Pro AI capabilities further enhance photography, with cloud-assisted AI imaging designed to improve detail, colour and clarity across supported scenarios, including portraits, night scenes and digital zoom.
