HONOR has officially launched the HONOR X8d in the Philippines, positioning it as a midrange smartphone that combines long battery life, slim design, and AI-driven features.
Priced at PHP 15,999, the device is currently available for pre-order until March 27, with bundled freebies offered through retail and online channels.
Slim build meets large battery capacity
The HONOR X8d features a 7.5mm ultra-thin design, targeting users who prefer lightweight devices without sacrificing battery performance.
A key highlight is its 7,000mAh battery, which HONOR claims can deliver extended usage time for daily tasks such as streaming, browsing, and messaging. The device is also positioned for long-term durability, with battery endurance designed to last several years under regular use.
AI button and 108MP camera headline key features
The smartphone introduces an Instant AI Button, a dedicated physical control that allows users to quickly access system functions such as device cleanup, performance optimization, and frequently used apps.
On the camera side, the HONOR X8d is equipped with a 108MP main sensor, designed to capture detailed images across different lighting conditions. The device emphasizes improved clarity and brightness, particularly for everyday photography scenarios.
Targeting style-conscious and student users
HONOR is positioning the X8d toward younger users and students, highlighted by its launch event in Bonifacio Global City and its focus on design and usability.
The device is available in Light Blue, Velvet Black, and Velvet Grey colorways.
This aligns with a broader trend in the midrange segment, where brands balance aesthetic design, battery life, and camera performance to attract lifestyle-focused consumers.
Pre-order promos and availability
Customers who pre-order the HONOR X8d through HONOR Experience and partner stores can receive free HONOR Camping Light Speakers, while online purchases come with HONOR Earbuds II.
The device is available via major e-commerce platforms and retail stores nationwide, with additional promotions and bundles tied to the pre-order period.
Reliable and long-lasting
The HONOR X8d highlights a growing shift in the midrange smartphone market, where brands compete on battery capacity, AI-driven features, and design rather than raw performance alone.
With its large battery and simplified AI tools, the device targets users looking for a reliable, long-lasting smartphone that fits everyday needs without moving into premium price territory.
