HONOR recently unveiled not only the HONOR 90 GT but also introduced the HONOR Pad 9, the latest addition to the company’s budget-friendly tablet lineup in China. Boasting a 12.1-inch 2.5K (WQXA) LCD screen, the tablet delivers a visual treat with an 88% screen-to-body ratio and 500 nits brightness.
An interesting feature is the soft light version, equipped with a paper-like eye-protecting matte screen that minimizes reflections, reducing the impact of light, sunlight, and other ambient lighting, ensuring a more comfortable viewing experience.
Under the hood, the tablet is powered by a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM, complemented by 8 speakers, all packed into a sleek 6.9mm body. Running on MagicOS 7.2 based on Android 13, the tablet prioritizes smart connectivity, efficient services, seamless performance, and enhanced privacy and security.
Adding a creative touch, the tablet supports the Magic Pencil 3, featuring 4096 pressure sensitivity and a rapid 2ms response time. The pencil conveniently charges magnetically when placed on the top of the tablet, promising an impressive 10 hours of battery backup. The Pad 9 is equipped with a robust 8300mAh battery and supports 35W fast charging.
