Unfortunately, the phone did not meet my aspirations that I expected to find it, the pictures taken from the camera are normal or less than just normal, maybe only the design of the cameras on the back screen is beautiful, there is no Do Not Disturb feature when playing games, there is no feature that the phone vibrates when the caller answers, no There is a feature to repeat the call when the line is busy, there is no program to check your phone for faults and ensure that it works properly, you cannot choose the default Wi-Fi network, finally I think that the device excelled with a clear screen that is not easily breakable, and an attractive back screen, but it lacks lighting around the frame of the cameras

I have to say, I'm a big fan of this circular and (almost) flat camera ring. Something new out of the boring and cliched camera islands.

Would love to see a more higher-end version of this phone, maybe with at least a SD778G, or even better a SD870 or D9000.

bulbulito.bayagbag, 26 Jan 2023If you want long software support (OS/security updates) the... moremaybe it depends though, but I applauds Samsung's effort to provide almost guaranteed 3+ Android upgrades and regular security patch updates, much longer than what Chinese oems provides. My Xiaomi phones like R5+ and RN7 received only two Android upgrades, and my RN9Pro received 3 Android upgrades. Its just, Xiaomi might have based their software support on how many units are sold, and how many units are still actively used. They dont have that kind sense of responsibility to have their phones updated for years even just a security patch update is fine rather than nothing.

Came from Xiaomi to try Honor brand. But still I didn't sold my Redmi Note 9 Pro just to be sure Honor X9A disappoints me, but here are the drawbacks:

- No Expandable Storage
- Honor didn't state any policy regarding guaranteed future Android upgrades
- Single Speaker, No 3.5mm audio jack
- The UI is very Android 11, despite the base is Android 12.
- No available public access on developer/ community support related to software update packages, firmware packages, firmware flashing tool, bootloader unlocking guide, and community portal. (Yes if you are coming from Xiaomi, these things are a huge step back)
- No IR Blaster
- No eSIM (hey its 2023 already)

The only reason I purchased this unit is:
- Almost bezel-less curved AMOLED display
- 5G
- Battery and 40W charging
- Basically, I just want to try new brand.

There are other phones at same price and midrange category so if you dont care about its curved and tough AMOLED display, then Poco X4 GT, Redmi Note 12 Pro, and Poco F3 or F4 has better specs on papers than Honor X9A.
