HONOR has launched the HONOR X9e Pro in Malaysia, pairing an 11,000mAh battery with 80W wired charging, a 10,000-nit display and protection ratings that read like a checklist for bad weather. The phone starts at MYR 1,899 for 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, according to GizmoChina.
The launch follows HONOR Malaysia teasers reported by GSM Arena, with the handset now listed as a Malaysia launch rather than an upcoming device. HONOR’s Malaysia launch page is the official regional reference, although its extracted page content does not expose the X9e Pro’s full order details.
HONOR X9e Pro specifications and battery
The HONOR X9e Pro uses a 6.8-inch AMOLED display with a 2788 × 1280 resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 10,000 nits of peak brightness. The panel covers the full DCI-P3 gamut and uses Gorilla Glass Victus 2. HONOR also claims drop protection from up to three metres.

The HONOR X9e Pro battery supports 80W wired charging and 27W reverse charging. HONOR says it can retain its health for up to six years under its stated test conditions. The company also lists 164.5 hours of music playback, 66.8 hours of video playback and 35.6 hours of short-video playback for the battery graphic supplied with the launch coverage.
The phone runs on a Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset with 8GB of RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of storage. Its rear cameras include a 108MP main sensor with optical image stabilisation and a 5MP ultrawide camera. It can record 4K video and includes an underwater camera mode.
HONOR X9e Pro price and UAE availability
In Malaysia, the 8GB+256GB model costs MYR 1,899, while the 8GB+512GB version is MYR 2,399. Preorders run until 8 October and include free gifts valued at MYR 1,626, including an HONOR Tab X7 tablet.
The HONOR UAE phones page currently lists the X9d and 600 series, but not the X9e Pro. There is no confirmed UAE price or launch date yet. HONOR’s earlier X9d shows that rugged, high-capacity phones do reach the region, but local availability should not be assumed from the Malaysian launch. Our HONOR X9d review and coverage of the HONOR X7e Plus battery cover the company’s existing long-battery phones in the UAE.
Is the HONOR X9e Pro likely to replace a power bank?
Its 11,000mAh battery is much larger than the batteries in most mainstream phones, so it is aimed at users who prioritise long runtimes over a lighter handset. Actual endurance will depend on brightness, network use and temperature.
How does the HONOR X9e Pro compare with the HONOR X9d?
The X9e Pro has a larger 11,000mAh battery on paper, while the UAE-listed X9d has an 8,300mAh battery. The X9e Pro’s local price, software and final regional configuration still need confirmation.
When will the HONOR X9e Pro launch in the UAE?
HONOR has not announced a UAE launch date or price. The phone’s Malaysian launch does not confirm availability in the UAE, so buyers should wait for a local HONOR listing or announcement.
