Honor X8d Revealed: 7,000mAh Power, 4G Snapdragon Gen 2

Honor has quietly listed the new X8d in Kyrgyzstan, and the listing reveals a phone built around battery life and value — even if a few details remain fuzzy. The model currently shows as out of stock, so price and wider availability for global markets are still unknown.

Key specs at a glance

• Display: 6.77-inch AMOLED, 1080 x 2392
• Chipset: Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 (4G-only)
• Memory & Storage: 8GB RAM, 128GB storage
• Battery: 7,000 mAh with 45W wired charging
• Cameras: 108MP main + 5MP secondary; 16MP front camera
• Durability: IP65 dust and splash resistance
• Dimensions: 162.9 x 76.3 x 7.5 mm; Weight: 188 g
• Colors: Blue, Grey, Black

The headline here is obvious: a massive 7,000 mAh battery paired with fairly fast 45W wired charging. For users who prioritize long screen-on time and multi-day use, the X8d promises endurance without forcing a bulky chassis — at 188 grams and 7.5 mm it’s surprisingly slim for that capacity.

On performance, Honor has chosen the Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2. That means no 5G connectivity — a deliberate trade-off that likely helps keep costs and power draw down. With 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage, the configuration targets mainstream buyers who want smooth everyday performance rather than flagship-level speed.

Photography is anchored by a 108MP primary sensor on the rear and a 5MP secondary shooter whose exact role (depth, macro or ultrawide) isn’t clarified in the listing. Selfies come from a 16MP front camera. Altogether this is a typical mid-range camera setup that leans on a high-resolution main sensor for detail-rich photos.

One oddity in the listing is the software detail: it names Android 15 under MagicOS 10, but MagicOS 10 is reported to be based on Android 16. That appears to be a typo or listing error. Expect Honor to clarify whether the phone ships with Android 16-based MagicOS 10 or Android 15.

Other practical touches include an IP65 rating for dust and splash resistance and three color options. The Kyrgyzstan listing is a common early indicator rather than a full launch — pricing and international availability should follow once Honor confirms the X8d for wider markets.

In short: the Honor X8d looks like a battery-first mid-ranger with sensible specs and a 4G-only Snapdragon chip. If long battery life and a large AMOLED display are your priorities, this one is worth keeping an eye on.
