Great review mate, you definitely should have more subscribers....answered more or less every single question and excellent presentation.....subbed...kudos👍😎
Hey, thank you so much for your kind words and support! I truly appreciate your feedback and I'm glad you found the review helpful. It means a lot to me. Thanks for subscribing and your encouragement! 🙏😊
Excellent video dude, i bought 3 of these prior to discovering your channel today, they definately are high quality with great internals for the price for sure. Subbed
Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙏 I'm thrilled you enjoyed the review, and I totally agree HONOR/Huawei products never cease to impress! I’m working on another HONOR product review at the moment too 👍🏽
Hi, yes reflectivity is an issue, its just one of things that get worse the bigger the screen gets, but nothing that would deter me from it as it is very good value for money
I am stuck between choosing the Pad 8 or the Pad X9 because both have their own merits. The Pad 8 has a bigger and better screen and also comes with a charger. The Tab X9 is newer, has a faster cpu and the latest version of Android which should allow for more updates over the next two years. At the moment the Tab X9 is only £20 cheaper than the Tab 8 and that's little more than the price of a decent fast charger which I will have to buy separately so the relative price is basically the same. I will be using the tablet mainly for browsing, chatting and streaming live sports and watching programs but am not particularly bothered about gaming. I am leaning more towards the Tab X9 because it is the newer model but am concerned about how the sound works in portrait given that it only has speakers on 3 sides, which means that the right side in portrait doesn't have speakers. Is this an issue or barely noticeable? Also, when in split screen mode in landscape, which i would sometimes use to watch a sport and use a chat app at the same time how does the keyboard work? Does it stay within the chat app part or will it still take up the full width of the tablet? Btw, I really like your reviews, very precise and informative. Got thumbs up and subscribed from me!
Hello, while I haven't personally used the Lenovo P11, it seems to have some advantages over the X9. The P11 appears to have a slightly better processor on paper, higher MP cameras, improved WiFi with WiFi 6e support, as well as sim and SD card support. However, it's essential to consider real-world usage to make a final decision. Based solely on the spec sheet and price, I would lean slightly towards the P11
Thank you for fantastic review 👏👏👏the best I ever seen on CZcams. You got my subscription! By the way, do you know whether Honor started to sell Honor Magicpad 13? And if so, how much? Thanks
Thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing! I'm glad that you enjoyed my review. As for the Honor Magicpad 13, as far as I am aware it has only been released in select markets such as China, unfortunately it is not available in the UK at the moment.
Would you recommend to buy the Honor Pad 8 or the X9 for media consumption? The Pad 8 has larger IPS display, but lower refresh rate. The X9 has smaller and possible worse TFT display but higher refresh rate 120Hz. Is one better than the other in screen, speakers or anything else?
Hi, I don’t have any personal use of the Pad 8 but for media consumption, I think there are certain trade offs on each side and you would have decide which trade off you are willing to accept. The TFT panel on Pad X9 is not bad at all in my opinion with slight shifting in viewing angles. And 0.5 inches difference in size is marginal. X9 also has slightly higher PPI. Personally the X9 was a very good tablet for media consumption
I bought the X9 and it's and amazing tablet. Speakers, screen, battery life, software everything is mind blowing at this price range. I don't understand how can they make it this good at £149
Hi i like your review for this tablet but i have a question . Dose it supporting some High quality games like genshin impact whitout crashing or lagging ?
Mmm tbh it's not made for high end games, so it's gonna give u up to 30 fps (unstable performance) for Genshin impact! Lite and med games would be a thrill on this pad for sure❤.
The only thing I want to ask about this tablet can you make the icons bigger so you can see the icons can you make the writing bigger on there as well can you let me know..
What would be your recommendation, X9 or Xiaomi Pad SE. I would primarily use it for manga, anime, playing some games and browsing the web? Also whats your opinion on SD cards. For example for downloading manga or files on it, are they reliable? Thanks in advance.
I preferred the Pad X9 between those two tablets, but they are very similarly matched specs wise, but for me the X9 was slightly better. I think for the use cases you listed it would work fine, especially as a media consumption device it is really nice
This is a great review of the HONOR Pad X9. Thanks very much. The camera isn't the best but it's not meant to be at this price. Still feeling a little tempted by it here....🤔
The tablet is really good for the money, has a great display for indoor, good audio, runs smooth and can handle a bit of multitasking very well. The CPU is strong enought for simple tasks of everyday life for common users, and let the battery last long, at least 7 hours. It's a mess that the Honor Launcher, even if has many good things quite usefull in a tablet, lacks of many usefull features, is ugly and has a poor and limited personalization, but it runs very fast.
I have an old Samsung A6 tablet from 2006 I use it mostly for a app that allows me to use to view a camera as a baby monitor. The Samsung is old now doesn't get any updates and I am after one with the same size battery and more secure would this be a perfect replacement
Hi, it sounds like for your use case the Pad X9 will suffice. HONOR state that the Pad X9 will receive regular quarterly security patches and I believe at least 1 OS upgrade. Hope this helps answer your query
Looking for a cheap tablet with a good screen to put on a treadmill, don’t care much for performance. Do you have any suggestions? Or is this the best screen for the price?
Should I get this one x9 or Pad 8? Both are similar in price here. I'm looking for a better display for media consumption and to read e books. Users say Pad 8 display doesn't look sharp enough if u look too closely due to big display. I want to know if its the same case here with x9???
Hi, the HONOR Pad X9 has a higher PPI of 203 whereas the Pad 8 is 194 PPI, me personally, I didn’t really look at it very close like that but it seems sharp enough at normal distance, and Pad X9 also has higher refresh rate of 120Hz vs 60Hz and can get slightly brighter at 400 nits vs 350 on the Pad 8, do between them the X9 has the better display and would be more suited for you media consumption and ebooks
While both tablets are very closely matched specs wise, for me the HONOR Pad X9 was the better tablet. It would be best to compare the specs to decide for yourself, examples are that the Redmi Pad SE had additions such as SD card slot. But Pad X9 has 120hz screen, 6 speakers etc
Just as an aside while the review was awesome and it was nice that you provided the specs. Using White font on a light grey background really makes it hard to see what you wrote
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed the review and thanks for pointing that out, for future videos I will consider using a darker background to make the text more legible 👍
Hi, I’m looking at getting my daughter one of these for Christmas, she’s into playing Roblox games, watching movies, Netflix, just loads of games to be honest, would u say this would be suitable? She has the Lenovo M10 at the moment but the storage is RUBBISH. & she filled it with games in about 2 weeks. Thanks
Hi Jenna, thank you for watching, sounds like she’s an avid gamer lol. The Pad X9 comes with 128GB of internal storage only (no sd card expansion!) so it all depends on how many games she downloads and how big they are. Something like Genshin Impact runs around 20GB usually, so large file sized games will fill up the storage quite quickly. Just have to be mindful of the limited storage in the end. For everything else, watching movies & Netflix the tablet is a delight, the 6 speakers make it very immersive and the display too 👍 hope that answers your question
No worries, yeah that wouldn’t be a problem. But again comes down to if you’re downloading SD or HD, as HD movies will take up a lot more storage (stating the obvious lol)
Glad you enjoyed. I believe there isn’t a ‘dedicated’ stylus for this tablet, but if you look around you can find some that may work with it. I believe Huawei sell one on AliExpress
Glad you enjoyed, I think it would be fine at handling PowerPoint and word documents, the snapdragon 685, although a low end chip, would be capable of such tasks, scores respectably on benchmarking for a low end chip
Hi i just got my one today and my only issue is i cant set any of youtube videos to play in 4k quality. Maximum i can see is 1080p. Is there any way to play videos in higher resolution than 1080p on youtube app? I have tried youtube revanced too but no luck despite setting default resolution to 4k
Hi, unfortunately for me it was the same, 1080p is the highest playback on CZcams, which I believe is due to compatibility of the device. I’m not aware of any other workarounds that would allow it to work…unless someone else can provide some information..
I would say the Honor Pad X9 has the slightly better display mainly because it has 120Hz versus 90Hz on Pad SE, and is 0.5 inches bigger. Everything else is pretty much very similar. Both a decent displays
HONOR claims “built-in 7250mAh battery supports about 13 hours of local video playback with a full charge”. With my use, mixed, I managed around 10 hours
I know right, HONOR themselves have listed the screen as “TFT LCD (IPS)” however other websites have listed as TFT. The screen itself to me resembles more of an IPS display
Hi, the tablet itself has ‘Location Services” however I can not explicitly state if the tablet has a GPS chip as it is not listed on the official spec sheet of the tablet on HONOR’s UK website. Some other websites do have the tablet listed with GPS…
Hi, I didn’t notice any dimming so to speak, however with a peak brightness of 400 nits there was reflectivity issues and it direct sunlight the screen was not very visible, but just generally outside it is fine and legible
Claimed is “13 hours of video playback on full charge” I got around 9/10 with my use on full charge, but this included watching videos, heavy benchmarking, playing games, web browsing etc.
Hey, hmm not sure why it would be running bad. Maybe try restarting the tablet and then trying? Or try turning on ‘performance mode’ under the battery settings and then playing
Hi, to be honest as far as I am aware all the budget tablets have very similar specs, having palm rejection pushes up price a little. Check out my Lenovo Tab P12 review, that’s priced at around £330, quite good for productive use and comes with a stylus too
Hi, unfortunately not as it doesn’t have a ‘stylus dedicated’ screen, leaning your palm on the screen will register as input, but depends on how still your palm stays lol
@@typicaltechlad oh no... Do you know a good tablet with a similar price that has palm rejection? I'm looking for it with palm rejection for university
@@typicaltechlad the German honor support wrote me the opposite. I've bought it in the meantime and can confirm that it supports widevine L1. Thanks a lot
Hi, that is a good question because in my research myself I could not find the official charging speed, I checked the quick start guide too and nothing in there either. Only thing I found was what you had probably seen of 22.5 watts. I used a fast charging brick when charging the tablet and it does state “Quick Charging”
Yeah, to be honest I had to do some hunting around (and still got it wrong lol) you would think it is something that they put forward as again it’s a good spec for a tablet at this price
Hi, it has HONOR Connect which allows you to “screen share between phone and tablet, you can drag images and videos seamlessly between devices” and Message Share “receive messages from your phone on the tablet”.
Hi, the regular version (the one I have reviewed) does not have GPS, however I believe there is a LTE version (not available in the UK as far as I can see) that does have a GPS chip
@@typicaltechlad yup..seems a lot of people reported same thing. I have to tap screen regularly watching Netflix. Prime video etc to stop it sleeping after a short time.
Down side points are no headphone socket, no card slot, no plug and hard to navigate through where your missing the 3 little boxes at the bottom. £160 in Argos.
Those are definitely down sides, you can change the gesture based navigation to the classic three- key navigation by going to Settings> System & Updates> System Navigation and selecting three-key navigation
What type of screen it is ....company wrote it TFT LCD (IPS) BOTH what does it means ...can you tell me plz difference between screens of honor pad 8 vs hono x9 pad ..
Hello, you’re right and this seems to be an unconfirmed error by the company, from experience I do believe it is an IPS display as the viewing angles were no where near as bad as a TFT display would be. Differences between the X9 and 8 are minimal, X9 has a slightly better processor, 120Hz, and slightly sharper sceeen. Pad 8 is more expensive also, at least here in the UK
Thnkx for reply but sir this is not a error ....i also read This type of screen in huwaei matepad it is same screen by honor company and huwaei both are same companies ......i only want to know howz the quality of screen ....can you compare it with another pad for example with redmi pad or honor pad 8 ?i want to buy honor x9 it it ok i want to do share market trading only ?
I didn’t realise it was possible to have TFT and IPS display together? I thought they were 2 different types of display technology? The screen on the X9 is good, plenty brightness and nice colours. It has PPI of 203 which is mediocre but decent enough. I think for you market trading this tablet will be fine
Have you saw a honor 8 tab? I want to know about its comparison on screen ....last thing I want to know about its battery life after heavy use ..can it stay for 2 day ?
Battery life is good, depends on what you are using it for, if processor heavy tasks then it’ll be less. HONOR state “13 hours of local video playback with a full charge, giving you full support whether you are watching extended live sports, taking online courses, or reading e-books”. For me battery life was very good. Standby time was around 2.5 days also
Hi, both tablets have their pros and cons, it would be best to research direct comparisons to see which specs are more beneficial to you. Also the Redmi Pad is nearly £100 more expensive here in the UK (RRP)
Hello, this tablet would be okay as it is £250 euros I believe. It has good multi tasking/split screen functionality and also good connectivity abilities. But you may look around at other tablets under 300 to see what fits your needs best
Hey, my bad, an oversight from me, will definitely include in future videos. In the case of the Pad X9 the company promises 2 years of major updates and 3 years of security updates.

They are 2 separate companies now.
You’re right, that they are after being sold to Shenzhen in 2020
Reflectivity is my only concern with this tablet. It’s the one thing I don’t like on a tablet . Other than that, it looks amazing for the price.
Hi, yes reflectivity is an issue, its just one of things that get worse the bigger the screen gets, but nothing that would deter me from it as it is very good value for money

What would you choose over this and the lenovo p11 gen 2 and why? Thanks for the review.
Hello, while I haven't personally used the Lenovo P11, it seems to have some advantages over the X9.

Love this new tablet can you use your honor phone plug to charge it
Hey, me too! Which plug are you referring to?
@@typicaltechlad the honor 70 light plug can I use it on this tablet
Hey, yeah I’d imagine you can, looks like the Honor 70 lite supports 22.5W charging which would be fine with this tablet too
The only thing I want to ask about this tablet can you make the icons bigger so you can see the icons can you make the writing bigger on there as well can you let me know..

Hi any external memory? For example microsd?
Matepad 10.4 with 710a processor or honor tab x9
Nice review 🙂👍🏼, One question, it has RAM expansion (4gb+3gb) features or Honor calls it turbo RAM, can I disable it?
Hi, thank you! I wasn’t able to identify any way to disable the turbo RAM, seems like it is on by default and stays like that
@@typicaltechladok got it, thanks👍🏼

No pre applied screen protector unfortunately
Great review
This is a great review of the HONOR Pad X9. Thanks very much. The camera isn't the best but it's not meant to be at this price. Still feeling a little tempted by it here....🤔
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed. Yeah, they have to cut some corners to achieve a price point that low.
Looks to me like the biggest corner cutting is the lack of a charger!

Where is this Honor os turbo option for ram ?
Is it google suppoting and good for medical students?
Yes, supports Google, productivity wise the tablet is okay, not the best of course but does the minimum
I’m looking to buy one of these and use in the car as my new head unit. Currently using an old Huawei and need something bigger and faster.
I think this tablet will serve your purpose well, nice smooth 120Hz display and a decent enough processor to get most tasks done without a problem
Good review can u use earphones with it I can't find socket to plug into thanks
This pad doesn't have an earphone jack, but u can connect it to Bluetooth thou
Looking for a cheap tablet with a good screen to put on a treadmill, don’t care much for performance. Do you have any suggestions? Or is this the best screen for the price?
Also, the lack of headphone jack is a bit of a turn off, but I’m assuming I can use any dongle, right?
@@MMD88a Bluetooth would be best deal and moreover it has 6 speakers it won't be a problem

Did you try desktop mode on HONOR PAD X9?

Question....Does Disney and Netflix play in HD or is it SD?
The tablet supports Widevine L1 so will playback streaming services in HD
Is there a way to use dual audio so 2 people can watch movies on the same tablet on 2 different bluetooth headsets?
Hi, I’m not aware of such a function, I believe this may be a limitation of the 5.1 Bluetooth? Unless someone else can advise otherwise?
@typicaltechlad seems only samsung galaxy tab 8 and 9 have this capability
Very Good Review.💯

Honor pad x9 & Redmi pad se which one has better display? Thanks
I would say the Honor Pad X9 has the slightly better display mainly because it has 120Hz versus 90Hz on Pad SE, and is 0.5 inches bigger. Everything else is pretty much very similar. Both a decent displays
stuck between honor pad x9 or redmi pad se😭 which one should i buy
Hi, check out my video when I compare the 2 tablets: czcams.com/video/dK7IQdCYATU/video.htmlsi=MHk2f-VkkKuXQ5oJ
I'm watching on honor 9x tablet
Does netflix play in 1080p HD or is it only in SD ?
The tablet supports Widevine L1 DRM, so is able to stream Netflix at 1080p full HD
How is battery backup.... How much hours take it 100% to 0% when constantly uses??
HONOR claims “built-in 7250mAh battery supports about 13 hours of local video playback with a full charge”. With my use, mixed, I managed around 10 hours
Abit confusing the a ips screen or TFT
?
I know right, HONOR themselves have listed the screen as “TFT LCD (IPS)” however other websites have listed as TFT. The screen itself to me resembles more of an IPS display
Yeah my guess it's ips screen not TFT as there usually Matt and this screen in video is vibrant.
Ok I checked. bad news. it's a TFT LCD panel not my fav panel had a laptop with one terrible .
Ok triple checked reviews they say it's a LCD ips panel .not TFT bit confusing but looking at video it's Def ips panel
My assumption was IPS panel too, TFT would have had horrible viewing angles etc but on the Pad X9 this isn’t the case. The screen is decent
How many watt charger sapported this charger
......??
22.5W
9:42 The icons on the home screen look so huge. Can they be reduced to fit more on the home screen?
Hi, I wasn’t able to test the sizing of the icons, apologies
Does stylus pen work on this?
Yes a 3rd party ‘universal’ stylus will work
Does the handheld overheats when playing games? :)
It may overheat slightly when pushing the graphics but general/casual gaming you’ll be fine, I didn’t notice any heating issues there
Does this pad x9 have a GPS chip that can be used independantly of other connectivity?
Hi, the tablet itself has ‘Location Services” however I can not explicitly state if the tablet has a GPS chip as it is not listed on the official spec sheet of the tablet on HONOR’s UK website. Some other websites do have the tablet listed with GPS…
What are the viewing angles like mate?
Hey, viewing angles are really good. No colour shift or dimming, just in the day reflectivity can be bad but apart from that all good
What is this like outside?? Does it dim in sunlight like the x8?
Hi, I didn’t notice any dimming so to speak, however with a peak brightness of 400 nits there was reflectivity issues and it direct sunlight the screen was not very visible, but just generally outside it is fine and legible
how's the tablet support for styluses? is it pressure sensitive?
Hi, unfortunately no stylus support on this tablet, I’m assuming this was the case to keep costs down
This is December 21st, Thursday. I wish this iPad very much. I will come back here later when I get it. I wish happiness for my future self💗.
Well I really hope you do end up getting the tablet and it serves you well 👍
Can you link your Android phone to the tablet? Like an ipad and iphone does...
Hi, the tablet supports HONOR Connect, which allows you to link tablet with other HONOR phones, but I am not sure if this includes all android phones.
Does it come with a pre installed screen protector ?
No pre installed screen protector, at least not on my one
How much time does it take to Fully charge.
Stated is 3 hours
@@typicaltechlad Hows the battery backup
Claimed is “13 hours of video playback on full charge” I got around 9/10 with my use on full charge, but this included watching videos, heavy benchmarking, playing games, web browsing etc.
Wait! So there's no headphone jack???
Is there a sim slot?
No sim slot on this version
Nice video dear, thank you.
You’re welcome. Glad you enjoyed. Thank you 🤩
Great review, I've just ordered one!
How is it with game emulation like PS1, N64, PSP, Wii, PS2, Gamecube?
Thank you! Not sure as I didn’t get the chance to test any emulations unfortunately. Hope you enjoy your new tablet 👍
Oh ok I thought you owned the Tablet still but when mine comes I could get back to you on it.@@typicaltechlad
@badwolf66 I ended up gifting it to family. For future device reviews I’ll be sure to check emulators out. Yeah that would be good thanks 👍
I just bought pad x9 and played CoDm but it runs really bad. Have i done something wrong? Thank you!
Hey, hmm not sure why it would be running bad. Maybe try restarting the tablet and then trying? Or try turning on ‘performance mode’ under the battery settings and then playing
Can i charge it faster using a third party fast charger ?
22.5W is the maximum charging you can achieve by using a 3rd party charger, I used my MacBook 61W charge to achieve fast charging on it
does it have play store and other google services?
Hi, yes it has Google Play Store and other Google Services. It also comes with HONOR’s own ‘market’ for apps
Does it come with preapplied screen protector
No it does not
Hi do you know a good tablet with a similar price that has palm rejection? I'm looking for it with palm rejection for university
Hi, to be honest as far as I am aware all the budget tablets have very similar specs, having palm rejection pushes up price a little. Check out my Lenovo Tab P12 review, that’s priced at around £330, quite good for productive use and comes with a stylus too
@@typicaltechlad ok thanks
How does this connect with keyboard?
Hi, I believe you would be able to connect via a Bluetooth keyboard. The tablet does not have a dedicated keyboard connection
Hi does it have palm rejection while writing notes with a pen?
Hi, unfortunately not as it doesn’t have a ‘stylus dedicated’ screen, leaning your palm on the screen will register as input, but depends on how still your palm stays lol
@@typicaltechlad oh no... Do you know a good tablet with a similar price that has palm rejection? I'm looking for it with palm rejection for university
Hello !
I see you mention 6 speakers. I just bought this tablet and I only see 4.
Have I been missing something ? 😅
Hey! Haha I understand, as I thought the same myself, the 2 ‘slot’ cutouts along the longer side are speakers too
Please recommend a tempered glass.
It would be best to check on web to find some as I have not purchased any myself
Hi mate. What about the widevine certification? Could you please check it?
Hey, I’m not sure what you are referring to for ‘widewine’…could you elaborate please
@@typicaltechladit's a digital right management. Without it you can't stream in full hd
Hi, HONOR states “The HONOR Pad X9 supports Widevine L1 DRM”. Hope this clarifies
@@typicaltechlad the German honor support wrote me the opposite. I've bought it in the meantime and can confirm that it supports widevine L1. Thanks a lot
Ah okay, good stuff, apologies in delay getting back to you. Enjoy your new tablet 😄
Hello bud, can you confirm if this charges at 22.5 Watts? I've read it does on a few articles, but nothing concrete. Thanks..
Hi, that is a good question because in my research myself I could not find the official charging speed, I checked the quick start guide too and nothing in there either. Only thing I found was what you had probably seen of 22.5 watts. I used a fast charging brick when charging the tablet and it does state “Quick Charging”
@@typicaltechlad OK thanks for looking. 👍 Glad it gets a quick charge.
The chip SD685 has support of Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 which means 22.5W PD
Storage type is it eMMC or UFS?
Hi, I believe it has UFS 2.1 storage type
@@typicaltechlad just had an email back from Honor say UFS 3.1.
@paulmitchell243123 my bad, 3.1 it is then
@@typicaltechlad really surprised they don't advertise it and it as for price range I wasn't expecting them to say UFS 3.1.
Yeah, to be honest I had to do some hunting around (and still got it wrong lol) you would think it is something that they put forward as again it’s a good spec for a tablet at this price
Hi is this tablet support full hd in netflix i mean L3 and L1 in streaming
Hello, HONOR state “The HONOR Pad X9 supports Widevine L1 DRM”. Hope this clarifies your question 👍
@@typicaltechlad thanks
This tab support only fhd video or 2k its confusing plz can u clarify my doubts
Hi, from my experience it was only able to stream at FHD (1080p)
4k support in third party app?
Does it have Samsung Dex like feature?
Hi, it has HONOR Connect which allows you to “screen share between phone and tablet, you can drag images and videos seamlessly between devices” and Message Share “receive messages from your phone on the tablet”.
@@typicaltechlad thanks for the reply
Please recommend stylus for honor pad 9x.
Hi, it would be best to look for a universal stylus. The tablet does not have a dedicated stylus or stylus support as far as I am aware
Does it have gps chip
Hi, the regular version (the one I have reviewed) does not have GPS, however I believe there is a LTE version (not available in the UK as far as I can see) that does have a GPS chip
Mine keeps turning of watching videos. I have sleep set to never. Any ideas
Hey, that’s weird, have you tried a restart?
@@typicaltechlad yup..seems a lot of people reported same thing. I have to tap screen regularly watching Netflix. Prime video etc to stop it sleeping after a short time.
@@danielmccarthy8386is it still same or got it fixed ?
Down side points are no headphone socket, no card slot, no plug and hard to navigate through where your missing the 3 little boxes at the bottom. £160 in Argos.
Those are definitely down sides, you can change the gesture based navigation to the classic three- key navigation by going to Settings> System & Updates> System Navigation and selecting three-key navigation
What type of screen it is ....company wrote it TFT LCD (IPS) BOTH what does it means ...can you tell me plz difference between screens of honor pad 8 vs hono x9 pad ..
Hello, you’re right and this seems to be an unconfirmed error by the company, from experience I do believe it is an IPS display as the viewing angles were no where near as bad as a TFT display would be. Differences between the X9 and 8 are minimal, X9 has a slightly better processor, 120Hz, and slightly sharper sceeen. Pad 8 is more expensive also, at least here in the UK
Thnkx for reply but sir this is not a error ....i also read
This type of screen in huwaei matepad it is same screen by honor company and huwaei both are same companies
......i only want to know howz the quality of screen ....can you compare it with another pad for example with redmi pad or honor pad 8 ?i want to buy honor x9 it it ok i want to do share market trading only ?
I didn’t realise it was possible to have TFT and IPS display together? I thought they were 2 different types of display technology? The screen on the X9 is good, plenty brightness and nice colours. It has PPI of 203 which is mediocre but decent enough. I think for you market trading this tablet will be fine
Have you saw a honor 8 tab? I want to know about its comparison on screen ....last thing I want to know about its battery life after heavy use ..can it stay for 2 day ?
All LCD are mostly TFT but the panel technology will change TN, VA, IPS. So this is called TFT LCD Display with IPS panel
I hope you got your answer
How is it compared to MI pad 6
Mi pad 6 is superior, a lot better specs but also comes at nearly double the price
Hii please tell me about battery life that's mean how many hours back-up of this tab in single charge
Battery life is good, depends on what you are using it for, if processor heavy tasks then it’ll be less. HONOR state “13 hours of local video playback with a full charge, giving you full support whether you are watching extended live sports, taking online courses, or reading e-books”. For me battery life was very good. Standby time was around 2.5 days also
@@typicaltechlad I am using for video watching and entertainment, So tell me how much backup it gives you, not the data provided by the company.
@@BaljeetSingh-cm2qr in my testing, playing games, watching videos, benchmarking etc I got around 10 hours
@@typicaltechlad on last doubt please clear , Does this tablet get heat or no
@@BaljeetSingh-cm2qrprobably not because the SD685 Max TDP is only 5w so you won't feel the heat for atleast 5 to 6 hrs
Hi, xiaomi redmi pad 10.6 OR honor pad x9 ?
Hi, both tablets have their pros and cons, it would be best to research direct comparisons to see which specs are more beneficial to you. Also the Redmi Pad is nearly £100 more expensive here in the UK (RRP)
@@typicaltechlad thanks mate
charging adapter of how many watts is recommended for this tab?
22.5W is stated, which enables fast charging
What tablet do i reccomend as a student for under 300 euro?
Hello, this tablet would be okay as it is £250 euros I believe. It has good multi tasking/split screen functionality and also good connectivity abilities. But you may look around at other tablets under 300 to see what fits your needs best
@@typicaltechlad so what u suggest for under 300? Thank you for your respond
@@riccardovigano8354depends. Redmi pad or s6 lite or ipad 9gen 329€ now
bro tell about software updates promised by honor.
Hey, my bad, an oversight from me, will definitely include in future videos. In the case of the Pad X9 the company promises 2 years of major updates and 3 years of security updates.
Found anywhere selling a case for it?
Hey, yeah here in UK, you can purchase a flip cover for it: www.hihonor.com/uk/accessories/honor-pad-x9-flip-cover/buy/
5g or lte version????please reply
No 5g or LTE unfortunately, only WiFi
Has it inbuilt stylus support and palm rejection??
Hi, it does not have stylus support and I have not seen anything explicitly stating “palm rejection”
@@typicaltechlad there are no any tab with Stylus support in low budget.so sad
It’s a shame, but I believe it would be the case to keep costs down
