HONOR has done it again.
For the third year in a row, the HONOR X Series has maintained its title as Malaysia’s Number One Best-Selling Mid-Range Smartphone, winning the hearts (and pockets) of Malaysians nationwide.
From X9 to X9d 5G: A Legacy of Durability and Innovation
It all started in 2022 with the launch of the HONOR X9. Marketed with the bold tagline “Lagi Tahan, Lagi Best”, the phone quickly made waves for its durability, something Malaysian users had long wished for. As more people grew tired of fragile devices, HONOR answered the call with tougher designs and better performance.
The legacy continued with the HONOR X9a and X9b. The X9a became famous as the “toughest curved screen phone”, while the X9b smashed sales records, solidifying HONOR’s place at the top of the mid-range market. By 2024, the X9c 5G, dubbed the “Drop-Resistance King”, pushed the brand even further ahead.
Mid-Range Market Dominance
HONOR’s rise isn’t just about hype, the numbers tell the story. The X Series commanded a 33% market share in 2023, which skyrocketed to 55% in 2025. In simple terms, one out of every two mid-range smartphones sold in Malaysia today proudly carries the HONOR X badge.
Introducing the HONOR X9d 5G: Tougher, Smarter, and Unstoppable
Now, HONOR is ready to launch its latest champion, the HONOR X9d 5G, on 24 September 2025. This isn’t just a regular upgrade, it’s a revolution. The X9d 5G is the world’s first smartphone with:
- SGS Triple-Resistant Premium Performance Certification for drop, water, and dust resistance
- IP69K & IP68 Water Resistance, ensuring it withstands even extreme conditions
- A massive 8300mAh battery, offering longer hours of performance than any other mid-range device
Built to survive drops, spills, and long days, the X9d 5G proves that durability and performance can go hand in hand.
A Household Name in Just Four Years
From a newcomer in 2022 to a market leader in 2025, the HONOR X Series has set a new standard for what Malaysians expect from mid-range smartphones: reliability, innovation, and resilience. With the launch of the X9d 5G, HONOR is once again proving why it remains Malaysia’s top choice.
The HONOR X9d 5G officially launches on 24 September 2025 at 3PM via a live stream on HONOR Malaysia’s official Facebook page.
