Honor V9 sits between the mid-range Honor series and the flagship Huawei P and Mate series. If you think the Honor-mid range is a bit lackluster for you but you don’t want to spend too much on the flagship series, then this is the sweetest spot for you.

Specification

The Honor V9 actually packs a 5.7-inch QHD display, just imagine those crispy images. It is being backed up by a sufficient 4000mAh battery, so you don’t have to worry about the power needed to display each pixel.

Internally, it rocks the same HiSilicon Kirin 960 SoC found on the Mate 9. You can pair that with either 4GB or 6GB RAM and 64GB or 128GB onboard storage.

Flip over the device and it will greet you with its dual 12MP f/2.2 sensors that add depth of field to the image. Just right below will be the fingerprint scanner. While a single 8MP sensor will be handling your selfies.

The device runs on Huawei’s latest EMUI 5.0 based on Android 7.0 Nougat. So there’s that.

Color options will let you choose from Aurora Blue, Platinum Gold and Flame Red.

Honor V9 has a starting price of $377USD or Php19,000 Philippine peso for the 4GB/64GB configuration. $436 or Php22,000 for the 6GB/64GB and $508 for the 64GB/128GB variant. Prices are before taxes.

Just like we’ve mentioned earlier, the Honor V9 was reported to launch internationally as Honor 8 Pro on a later date.
