Honor launches the Honor 9X Pro, a Kirin 810-powered handset with a 48 MP camera and a 4,000 mAh battery

Touted as an "all-rounder for extraordinary experiences", the company's All-Scenario Intelligence Conference is the first time that we have seen the Honor 9X Pro outside of China. A Chinese exclusive since August last year, the Honor 9X Pro features a Kirin 810, a 7 nm SoC that integrates an ARM Mali-G52 MP6 GPU and eight CPU cores. Honor complements the chipset with 256 GB of UFS 2.1 storage and 6 GB of RAM. It is worth noting that Honor sells the 9X Pro with 8 GB of RAM in China and offers the choice between 128 GB or 256 GB of storage.

The Honor 9X Pro also includes a 6.59-inch IPS "FullView" display, which operates natively at 2,340 x 1,080. The display has a pixel density of 391 PPI too and is TÜV Rheinland-certified. Underpinning the display is a 4,000 mAh battery that supports up to 10 W charging via its USB 2.0 Type-C port. Incidentally, the device features a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, too.

One of the highlights of the Honor 9X Pro is its cameras. The device features three rear-facing sensors and a 16 MP motorised pop-up front-facing camera. Honor has equipped the 9X Pro with a 48 MP main rear-facing sensor, which has an f/1.8 aperture and a pixel size of 1.6 μm. There is also an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle f/2.4 sensor that has a 120° field of view, and a 2 MP depth sensor.
