Built to Go Further: HONOR X9e Pro Debuts with 11,000mAh Battery

HONOR has launched the new HONOR X9e Pro in Singapore, bringing its X Series back with a new generation of upgrades focused on durability, battery life and everyday performance.

Built around eight major upgrades, the HONOR X9e Pro combines an industry-largest 11,000mAh battery with Armor-Tough drop resistance of up to 3 metres, IP69K water resistance, a 10,000-nit display, a 108MP camera and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 Mobile Platform. The smartphone is designed to deliver a more durable and long-lasting experience for users who need a device that can keep up with demanding everyday conditions.

Industry-Largest 11,000mAh Battery
One of the biggest upgrades on the HONOR X9e Pro is its 11,000mAh battery, giving the smartphone a significant increase in capacity over the previous HONOR X9d, which featured an 8,300mAh battery.

HONOR says the X9e Pro can provide up to 66.8 hours of video playback and up to three days of use on a single charge under typical usage. This is designed to give users more freedom when commuting, working outdoors or handling demanding daily tasks without having to constantly look for a charger.

Despite the large battery, the smartphone measures just 8.08mm thick and weighs 203g across all four colour options. It also supports 80W wired HONOR SuperCharge, up from the 66W charging supported by its predecessor.

The X9e Pro also supports 27W wired reverse charging, allowing users to charge compatible smartphones and other portable devices using a cable. HONOR states that the battery has a six-year battery health expectancy, helping maintain reliable battery performance over an extended period.

Armor-Tough Protection with Up to 3-Metre Drop Resistance
Durability is another major focus of the HONOR X9e Pro, with the smartphone featuring 360° all-around drop resistance across different angles and surfaces.

The device has received SGS Premium Performance 5-Star certification for Drop Resistance in Harsh Scenarios, covering complex terrains and low-angle drops.

Its Armor-Tough construction incorporates HONOR Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Technology 4.0, which is inspired by the Halo safety system used in open-wheel racing. The technology allows the X9e Pro to withstand drops of up to 3 metres across 10 challenging surfaces, including cobblestone, asphalt and rough granite.

The smartphone also features 360° Dynamic Drop Resistance, designed to protect against unpredictable drops from different angles. It can withstand all-angle dynamic drops of up to 1.2 metres, with HONOR stating that this reduces the risk of screen damage by 82%.

The X9e Pro has also earned SGS-Certified 5 Stars Comprehensive Reliability for reliability and drop resistance under harsh conditions.

IP69K Water Resistance for More Extreme Conditions
The X9e Pro extends its durability credentials with IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings, protecting against dust, powerful water jets and high-temperature water.

Its IP69K protection is designed for more challenging environments, including heavy rain, outdoor work, water sports and fishing. HONOR says the smartphone can withstand immersion at depths of up to 10 metres and has been tested through 100,000 submersion cycles.

The device’s waterproof design is inspired by submarine architecture, using a three-layer sealing system with independent protection around key openings such as the buttons, speaker, USB-C port and SIM tray.

A precision drainage system around the speaker also helps manage water exposure while maintaining everyday usability. This allows users to capture underwater photos and videos in suitable conditions, whether photographing marine life, recording poolside moments or documenting other water-based activities.

6.8-Inch 1.5K Display with 10,000-Nit Peak Brightness
The HONOR X9e Pro features a 6.8-inch 1.5K display with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, providing smoother scrolling and more responsive interactions.

The panel reaches up to 10,000 nits of peak brightness, designed to keep content visible with vibrant colours and clear details even when the smartphone is being used under intense outdoor lighting.

108MP Camera with CIPA 6.0-Level Stabilisation
For photography, the HONOR X9e Pro comes with a 108MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera featuring CIPA 6.0-level image stabilisation.

The system combines optical image stabilisation (OIS) and electronic image stabilisation (EIS) to reduce blur caused by camera movement.

This is designed to help users capture sharper and more detailed images across different lighting conditions and shooting scenarios.

Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 for Everyday Performance
Powering the smartphone is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 Mobile Platform, which is designed to provide responsive performance for everyday tasks such as communication, entertainment, photography and multitasking.

The platform works alongside the 11,000mAh battery and the phone’s durable construction to deliver consistent performance throughout the day.

AI Imaging and Eye Comfort Features
HONOR has also introduced several AI-powered imaging features on the X9e Pro.

AI Zoom Enhancement is designed to improve detail when capturing distant subjects, while AI Night Enhancement helps preserve image details in low-light environments. AI Portrait Enhancement further refines portrait images, while Live Photo captures movement around a moment to create more dynamic memories.

The smartphone also introduces HONOR Oasis Eye Comfort, which combines several display technologies including AI Defocus Display, Motion Sickness Relief, AI Personalised Display and Ultra Dark Mode.

These features are designed to provide a more comfortable viewing experience across different scenarios. The X9e Pro also includes intelligent touch recognition, allowing users to interact with the display with damp or gloved hands.
