Performance
The Honor Pad X9 is powered by a Snapdragon 685 chipset, which is capable of running most apps and games. However, it is not suitable for running high-end games at the highest graphical settings. We experienced some stutters and lag when running games such as Hongkai, Sty and Gadget Impact even at the lowest of settings. The device has 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, which can be expanded by an additional 3GB using Honor’s OS Turbo RAM. We ran the device through our usual benchmarks and the results were satisfactory.
Camera
The Honor Pad X9 features a 5MP rear camera with a 2.2 aperture. The front camera is also a 5MP sensor, and the quality is not great. Noise can easily be seen when taking photos and videos with this tablet. The grainy quality makes it unsuitable for use as a main camera, but it should be sufficient enough for video calls.
Software
The Honor Pad X9 runs on Magic UI 7.1, which is based on Android 13. Honor and Huawei users will feel very familiar with this layout and UI, as it is very similar to that of its Chinese competitors. It also comes pre-installed with several apps such as Huawei Health, Huawei Music and Huawei Video.
