The 12-inch Honor Pad 9 now available in the UK and Ireland

Honor Pad 9 is a midrange Android tablet that launched in China back in December and has now made its way to the UK and Ireland. The slate is offered in a single 8/256GB trim and Space Gray color option for £300. An extra £50 gets you the optional keyboard case which is also available for early-bird orders on Honor UK's website. You can pick up the Pad 9 from HiHonor, Argos, Amazon, Very, and Currys online with open sales starting on Sunday, February 25.

As a refresher, Honor Pad 9 features a 12.1-inch IPS LCD with a 2,560x1,600 px resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The panel boasts 500 nits of brightness and supports stylus input though the pen will be available as a separate purchase starting from April.

Honor Pad 9 is equipped with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip, an 8MP front-facing cam and a 13MP main camera alongside an 8,300 mAh battery with 35W charging. The software side is covered by MagicOS 7.2 based on Android 13 and Honor is only promising one Android OS update which is a bit disappointing if yo plan to keep the device around for longer.
