The Honor X9b is a new midrange smartphone which sits in the under Rs 30000 category. It is Honor's second launch since its return to India in 2023.
The 6.78-inch curved AMOLED display of this smartphone is bright and vivid. It is also claimed to be much more resistant to drops.
The 5,800mAh battery of this smartphone is one of the biggest in the segment and it offers good battery life.
The 108MP primary camera is a great performer for the price. Its images have nice detail and great dynamic range. But, videos are pretty average.
The Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 on this device is old and not very powerful.
Honor's MagicOS is quite a heavy Android skin. Some will like it, others won't. The X9b also launches with Android 13 which is a bummer.
Rs 25999 seems to be on the higher side for this smartphone, especially since the competition in this price range is much more feature-rich.
