After being in the rumour mills for a while now, HONOR has finally launched the HONOR X9a 5G at an event in Kuala Lumpur today. The headline feature of the device has got to be its ultra-tough OLED curved display that is protected by a customised super-reinforced glass that makes it more resistant to falls. 

The display itself is also quite impressive, especially at the device’s price point, whereby it features a 6.67-inch 120Hz OLED curved display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels. Moreover, the panel has a touch sampling rate of 300Hz, 1920Hz PWM Dimming, 1.07 billion colours, 100 per cent DCI-P3, a 93 per cent screen-to-body ratio and a peak brightness of 800 nits.

Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G processor paired with 8GB of RAM. Users also have the option to virtually expand the RAM by up to 5GB by utilising the 256GB of storage space that the smartphone comes with.
