In early December 2022, HONOR Malaysia teased that a new HONOR X9a 5G smartphone will be coming here soon. Well, the date has been confirmed and it will officially be launched on 4 January 2023.

Not much is known about the X9a but it has been marketed to have an "ultra-tough OLED curved display". If you missed one of our stories, we actually had a knocking test on the phone's display and it can really crack a nut by smashing it. It is also noted that this will be the first time that a mid-range device embodies a curved screen.

Speaking of the curved screen, it is using 0.65mm Super Reinforced glass, resulting in a stronger and more drop-resistant than the 0.55mm glass commonly used in the market. It is also said to survive 1-meter drops on marble and concrete floors, and multiple-angle rolling drops, among which the micro-drop test was carried out several "ten thousand times".

Besides that, the X9a will feature a 1920Hz PWM dimming which is meant for long-term eye-care reading or watching visual content on the phone. It also has low blue light certification from TÜV Rheinland as well as an HONOR Multiscreen Collaboration feature for pairing up with an HONOR laptop.

More will be unveiled on 4 January 2023 at 7 PM and the livestream will launch on HONOR Malaysia's Facebook page. Stay tuned for our news coverage by then only at TechNave.com.
