If there’s one series of smartphones that contributed to HONOR’s insane momentum in the Philippines, it’s the HONOR X9 Series. Starting in 2023 with the HONOR X9a 5G, HONOR has been dropping hit after hit, literally. The brand basically treats the new year’s campaign of the viral phone series as tradition at this point!
“When we launched HONOR X9a 5G, we literally had zero expectations. What we had was hope and confidence in our capabilities, and then it exceeded all expectations. We did not let the success get into our heads; we just thought it was beginner’s luck. So, we leveled up with HONOR X9b 5G, and again it became a massive hit. Then HONOR X9c 5G came and it was our biggest feat yet, outdoing everything we’ve done in 2023 and 2024.”

The Numerous Successes of the HONOR X9 Series
The HONOR X9 Series has been synonymous with its exceptional durability. Year after year, HONOR Philippines keeps raising the bar with its viral campaigns. What began with 5-foot drop tests evolved into a 50-foot intense drop test. This year was even more insane as the HONOR X9c pushed to the extreme. That phone was dropped from a helicopter hundreds of feet above ground, further proving its unmatched toughness.
“One can only think about how we can even top the past three generations of HONOR X9 series. We must admit, it has become a challenge at this point, but with the technology and talent we have at HONOR, it is indeed a good challenge. I’m very excited for everyone to witness what we have been planning for the past few months,” Cheng continued.
One unforgettable moment is when when 264 brave participants dropped their HONOR X9c 5G simultaneously! This allowed HONOR to claim a coveted spot in the Guiness World Records for “The Most People Performing a Mobile Phone Drop Test Simultaneously.” This historic feat positioned HONOR Philippines as a benchmark in delivering credible, impactful messaging, reinforcing HONOR’s place as the standard for innovation, durability, and trust with the Filipino consumers.
A question remains: can HONOR top what it has done so far with the HONOR X9 Series? I have a good feeling that we’re about to find out sooner than we think! It is the end of the year after all.
