Honor 9X Pro (China) - User Reviews

  • Yes it is.

  • no sadly

  • Honor mostly uses Gorilla Glass 3. But they don't mention it.

  • Is honor (Huawei) still alive ???????

  • They have nothing to mention, they don't use serious protection for some time. I guess they still treat the glass somehow, but it's nowhere near as scratch-resistant as gorilla glass. Maybe it's a dragontrail glass, but I doubt it, it even seems weaker than that.

  • Huawei should have mentioned the type of glass protection this time because my honor 7x is such a durable one.

  • Only the most expensive Huawei/Honor flagships have gorilla glass, all other models have glass that scratches easily (including the 9X Pro), Huawei/Honor are the only manufacturer that releases midrangers and high-midrangers with no gorilla glass protection, this move is shameful, I stopped being a Huawei fan after this fiasco. That's why they're quick to include free screen protection film and covers for most of their phones, they know they're extremely easy to scratch and a cheap protection film is cheaper than gorilla glass.

  • Glass protection?

  • All selfies are girlish.

  • K20 pro is more powerful den 9x pro, in terms of camera 9x doesn't support 4k recording, Huawei and Honor phones don't have that much good stabilization on video recording, k20 pro have amoled display and display quality is far better, and have fast charging support, Huawei phones selfie are more like as girlish, you can play pubg at hdr extreme setting which is 60fps mode, on 9x pro you only hd high,

  • Honor 9x better than K20 ..but K20 have amoled and good battery backup than any of the Honor 9x /9x pro that's d only advantage...despite 3 camera on K20 .., d Honor 9x still better overall....dont even compare K20 to 9x pro...they are not mate....Honor 9x pro can be compare to Mi9T pro...but mi 9T pro slightly better overall..sd55 s.amoled screen & sound....camera zoom....but I really love screen Recording and video and night picture better on Honor 9x/9x pro......I love mi9T pro and Honor 9x pro design & battery last longer on 9x pro than mi9T pro ....but I don't know which one to buy right now

  • Likewise me too...am still thinking of the 2 Phones Mi 9T pro or Honor 9X pro....I watch many reviews Mi9 T pro Kind of better in Terms of camera sounds and speed ...But Night mode and video is better on Honor 9x pro ....am yet to decide....any advise here ?

  • I have plans for either the Mi 9t pro or the HONOR9XPRO but I tend to prefer the Honor9XPro since it'll be much cheaper. The Kirin 810 chipset is as capable as the Snapdragon845 last year and so gaming is also smooth on the Honor9XPro, even though it comes with LCD I tend to love it a little better at that 6.6inch screen. So, Redmi or Honor, lemme know what you think, please🙏 For Performance they are close, but I like the bigger screen with the side fingerprint scanner, donno much about the CAMERAS and the Batteries so any fresh opinions are welcomed🙏

  • I m using honor 8x and it is best in every sense camera battery feel and screen. response. i am looking forward to 9xpro would be good update with price point of view

  • Beware, just like the 8X, this has no screen protection, it uses cheap scratchable glass. My 8X scratched a dozen times in a month. I used phones with Gorilla Glass 3 that never scratched in 3-4 years of use. If some sources say it has glass protection, it's lies, the official site gives no specs on this.

  • He said world's 1st 7nm chip was launched by them not that the 910 is the 1st one . You gotta read a comment properly before commenting on it.

  • When will it be released in europe ?

  • Really excited for this phone, any news whether it will be released in India, if so the when.

  • Nah, the 910 isn’t the first 7nm chipset

  • And it still does 1080p recording

  • Price so steep as of now. I'm hoping it'll settle very affordable in within a month or two.

  • Honor 9x has 7nm chipset, which is latest & more over world's first 7NM chipst was introduced by Honor

  • Go for honor 8x

  • hi there, when will be the honor 9x is going to be released in India and Most importantly does both the version are coming with google support in them..?????

  • when will the honor 9x will going to be released in India and Main thing does the 9x and 9x pro is coming with google support in it or not..????

  • Hi there! I'm interested in buying new fon.. Since my old fon getting more often *Hang* nowadays.. My budget quite limited.. So, i'm not going 2 hv dis Honor 9x ofcoz.. My choices R between Huawei fonz: Nova 3i @ Honor 8x.. Which 1 is better 4 daily usage + long term??? Tqvm 4d help gven in dis matter..

  • does Honor 9x Pro has what type of glass on front and back?

  • at this range oppo is giving vooc and vivo 22.5w fast charging

  • This device should have fast charging

  • Bella ! Honor 9x Pro in camera and Performance (CPU and GPU) are so much better than huawei p30 lite and samsung a50

  • Hi which has better camera and performance huawie p30 Lite, Samsung a50 or honor 9xpro? Please advise.

  • Im curious to see if we can expect a 9X Max version. But hmmmmm

  • It doesn't work as good as sd card

  • Does this phone have NFC support?

  • 8X doesn't have. Some people say it's Gorilla Glass 3, but I can't find official info on it. My 8x scratched for no reason, so it doesn't have Gorilla 3 protection. My other Gorilla Glass 3 pjones never scratched in years. 9X I suppose is the same, so they can cut on costs.

  • SD CARD slot isn't a problem, just buy Type C PEN DRIVE with two ends, the other end which can fit your computer. Donno how to say it well but I hope you get my point.

  • I guess you've made my decision much easier, thanks pretty much

  • Xiaomi no sdcard it is a big mistake

  • Huawei OLED, then i install OneUI on it.

  • Then I'll ask Huawei/Honor with OLED? or Samsung with IPS LCD?

  • I never said im a hater, im just being honest and i would not go for a Samsung LCD if i have the option to have an OLED, they look the best. Also, what does Xiaomi has to do with Honor, yes im commenting on a Honor phone, but i was just replying to the Xiaomi guy.

  • if the choices will be Xiamo AMOLED And SAMSUNG LCD Ips ? I bet you'll choose Samsung. because you're a Huawei/honor hater.

  • If you don't have any preference so far, choose between: Mi 9T AMOLED better screen quality or 9X Pro LCD bigger screen, better performance = faster +you save money if buy 6/128GB, SD card is later possible. If you have chance, go see phones in person.

  • OLED all the way.

  • #Xiaomi_mi_9t(RedmiK20) non-pro, with AMOLED, 6Gb ram and 128Gb storage OR #Honor_9x_Pro with LCD but with 8Gb ram and 256Gb storage, Let's be honest here, which will you choose if they came with same price, be honest.

  • Yea k20 is far better

  • Mi 9T/K20 is better than this

  • Is Honor 9x have display protection ?? Which Glass they use to protect it??

  • 9x:yes 9x pro:no

  • Oh yeah. The k20 pro is better than the X9 pro. Cause K20 pro got a high end chip while the 9X is K810 chip.

  • K20 Pro is better than 9X Pro so IMO these don't. Means if you have equal price K20 Pro is better option. Or you can wait prices may change later. Otherwise I confirm comment below, 9X is comparable depending on preference with K20 and cheaper (expected price) than Mi9T in Europe as well.

  • The specs are similar, and the xiaomi one are more expensive. While the 9X is cheaper than the k20(9T), the 9X pro's price are pretty close to the k20 pro. ( All in Chinese RMB of course).

  • Am I the only one or what, it seems the prices of the HONOR 9x and the 9X pro series are gradually equating those of the XIAOMI REDMI K20 and K20 PRO Do you think the HONOR 9X deserves equal price tag as that of REDMI K20, whiles the HONOR 9X PRO also equates the REDMI K20 PRO?

  • No IR portal

  • You must wait.

  • No support.

  • does honor 9x pro officially launched to different countries like bangladesh & italy??

  • I mean enabling 4k on EMUI (though it can be done using app) -if they ever enable it and when if anybody knows, because of thinking of phone as a gift. Thx.

  • When can be enabling of 4k on this phone expected? I mean soon after launch, or later, or much later...

  • Dear gsmarena, please post your review asap. Thanks

  • Does 9x/9x pro display is good compared to p30 lite ?

  • If this phone support fast charging and wireless charging, then this one for me!: no notch, good battery, with 3.5 jack, radio, expandable storage, what else can i ask for? All package of this phone is complete for me

  • They don't have same "all", see specs or previous comments. Are you sure only Pro has cooling or both of them? Kirin810 inside makes it better deal than Mi T9 only if performance is the only thing you care about. In terms of camera it's not. Overall it's too early to say at best.

  • The 9x and 9x Pro have the same processor and all but the pro have a liquid cooling system.. the kirin 810 is more powerful than the sd730 .. that makes this a better deal than the mi 9T.. the smartphone wars gives us a lot of value for our money today..

  • no, only 1080p. But chip capable in 4k 30 fps, mb after release and updates.

  • I really do hope some form of fast charging is present on the pro variant, even tho it's unlikely. upwards of 2h20m for a full charge with regular charging is just too painful in this day and age, other than that I think the phones are decent overall.

  • Yes. That would help it a lot, 6.6" display would look pretty good. However they probably keep it for higher models and Huawei. If anything else, some faster charging should be present in both. (seen some rumours Pro should be capable of faster charging but absolutely no idea if it's true)

  • They should have added samoled to the pro version.

  • Honor 9x & 9x pro are shoot video in 4k at 30 fps

  • yes i see ultrawide cam now, kinda weird though for me, cuz they're really similar..

  • That 8MP ultrawide is too much asking price for this Pro version.

  • Why this phone doesn't have fast charger?

  • Dear friend I'm agree with you. Plz think cover phone with regular covers. It weight may be more than 220g. It like mate 20x 5G with 7.2 inch display. I'm wonder when read this specification. I agree with you it's not true

  • Both of them have cooling system

  • 9X Pro VS 9X: More memory configurations, ultra-wide camera, also should have cooling system and that's why it's heavier (not in specs here yet, I've heard it some time ago and I'm not 100% sure of this, if it's true GSMA should correct it)

  • I don't get it. Are this just Honor 9x with more ram & memory? lol.. This is what i don't like from Chinese manufacture, they always made many type but they're similar

  • Once in year I use to purchase Honor X series it all started from 6X,7X,8X and now waiting for 9X I use to sell the old honor X phones then buy next Honor X phones my budget use to be 13 k to 14k INR Waiting this 9X

  • Such a good value for the money.

  • Ups you forgot one big thing, the phone cost nearly nothing, then you cant expect everything.

  • When it arrive egypt

  • September

  • Does this phone support fast charging?

  • That's a decent phone besides the fact it's plastic

  • Side mounted

  • When available in Pakistan?

  • LMAO hahahahahh

  • this phone is looks like so amazing and if you have this giveaway i am in looks like gorgeous

  • Not a big problem. This will last for 3 days of intense use on a single charge. You can just charge it at night and thats it for next 3 days.

  • Sell dude not sold

  • No Fast charging strange

  • Hope Honor 9X Pro officially sold in Indonesia..

  • Prices negotiable

  • But it has 3.5mm, that's what you want!

  • 1 no fast charging 2 heavy 206 gram 3 ips display.. 4 a big no

  • mi9t or this?..

  • It seems the chin is as big or larger than the 8X... Disappointing. Should ve been 1mm smaller at least.

  • Wow, the midrange King is here. This is suppose to be the best midrange chip ever brought to the market. IT WORKS LIKE HIGH END CHIP. I really need the pro variant. The price is so good and I strongly believe it will sell more than its predecessors. If Google continues to work with Huawei than they will continue making it so huge. Please bring this phone every where please Huawei.

  • Why does the main camera have the video at only1080p 30FPS?

  • There must be a good reason for that. Like, better quality battery or better cooling or something like that.

  • Does this phone supports fast charging if I buy a fast charger?

  • Having notification light like honor 20 pro or not

  • Even my Note9 is lighter, and it's a heavy phone to begin with.

  • The phone is kind of heavy at 209g with 4000ma battery not even 5000ma.

  • What about the fingerprint sensor?

  • Confused in display...its OLED or IPS

  • No super Amoled, no eis, no 4k, no slow motion, high price

  • No 4k Video In 320$+ . The Realme X Is Better.

  • LTPS LCD display is the next version of IPS LCD display. Like- Amoled display and super amoled display

  • No 4K video

  • No 4K video

  • Wonder if this can run Fortnite, if so its a Realme 3 Pro slayer! :D

  • What's the difference between IPS LCD and LTPS IPS LCD?

  • This is good. I just hope the price is competitive. I love the large screen
