Honor X7, X8 and X9 5G specs and design quietly revealed in UAE private launch event

Honor has officially announced that it will be holding a major global launch event on March 29 for its fresh new X series lineup of devices, which are respectively the Honor X7, X8 and X9 5G. The company had already officially announced the Honor X8 a week prior, but not the Honor X7 and X9 5G.

However, it seems that we need not wait any longer for the specs and designs of the upcoming Honor X series. As Honor recently held a private media launch event in the UAE announcing the Honor X series, showing off the striking designs while detailing the specs of the Honor X7, Honor X8 and Honor X9 5G.

Although all 3 models are bearing the new ‘X’ name in the Honor family, all 3 models are actually rebadged devices that were launched within the last 3 months in China, but the X series is equipped with Google services and catered as a “global variant”.

Since the Honor X8 with the Snapdragon 680 specs were already detailed last week, we’ll be only detailing the specs and designs of the Honor X7 and the Honor X9 5G.

Honor X7

The Honor X7 is the global variant of the Honor Play 30 Plus launched in China back in December 2021.

It is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC coupled with 4GB/6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB storage. As for software, it boots Magic UI 5.0 based on Android 11.

The phone houses a dual-camera setup on the back comprising of a 13MP primary sensor and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front, it uses a 5MP shooter for selfies and video calls.

On the connectivity front, the smartphone supports dual SIM, 5G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.1, and GNSS (GPS, A-GPS, BeiDou). It also features a 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB Type-C port, and a MicroSD card slot.
