HONOR Philippines has unveiled the HONOR X5c Plus in the country via an exclusive partnership with Shopee Philippines, positioning the new model as a feature-heavy entry-level smartphone with a launch discount timed for the 3.3 Mega All-Out Sale.
“We’re excited to introduce the HONOR X5c Plus to the Philippine market — a smartphone that brings exceptional battery life, reliable performance, and value-for-money features to everyday users. And we are as proud to partner with Shopee Philippines in bringing this new phone closer to our customers nationwide,” said HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng.
On design, the HONOR X5c Plus adopts a symmetrical, minimalist look with rounded corners and straight edges, measuring 7.89mm thin and weighing 186g. It also carries an “ultra drop-resistant” build, paired with a 6.74-inch display rated at up to 450 nits of brightness. An eye-protection feature, including Dynamic Dimming, is included.
Powering the device is the MediaTek Helio G81 processor, backed by a 5260mAh battery aimed at all-day use. The brand also claims the battery can retain over 80% health after 1,000 charge-discharge cycles. Memory and storage are set at up to 8GB RAM (4GB+4GB) and 128GB internal storage, with capacity claims extending to more than 60,000 photos, 24,000 songs, or 200 movies.
For cameras, the HONOR X5c Plus is headlined by a 50MP main camera, alongside a 13MP camera and a 5MP front camera. AI-driven features highlighted include AI Object Recognition to isolate subjects and AI Photo Sharpness Enhancement for clearer results, including text-heavy documents.
Software is handled by MagicOS 9.0, with Side Fingerprint Unlock and Face Unlock for device security. It also introduces “Magic Capsule,” which expands from the notification banner for quicker access to information without switching between apps.
The HONOR X5c Plus will be sold in Ocean Cyan and Meteor Silver. Starting February 26, it will be available exclusively on Shopee Philippines for only P4,999 during the 3.3 Mega All-Out Sale, down from an SRP of P6,999, with free nationwide shipping.
