Is the HONOR X9e Pro the best smartphone under RM2,000 in Malaysia?

This post is brought to you by HONOR.

The HONOR X9e Pro has officially launched in Malaysia with a promo price starting at RM1,799, bringing a massive 11,000mAh battery, triple IP69K water resistance, and a 10,000-nit peak display to the mid-range smartphone market. From its 27W reverse wired charging capabilities to its CIPA 6.0 OIS-stabilised 108MP main camera and Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset, HONOR is putting heavy emphasis on long-term durability and endurance.

We also highlight our experience at HONOR’s media shooting range event, where the device was put to the test against rubber pellets from an air gun. Check out our full video showcase below to see what this device brings to the table:
