HONOR has put the HONOR Pad X9b Max on sale in Thailand. It is a 13-inch tablet pitched mainly at watching films and online study. There is one version, 4GB + 128GB in Titanium Gray, at 11,999 baht, sold online only. Orders placed October 9-31, 2026 get a free Bluetooth keyboard worth 2,999 baht.
A big screen built for watching
The 13-inch HONOR Max Display is 2.5K (228 PPI) at 120Hz, shows 1.07 billion colours and peaks at 700 nits. HONOR says its anti-glare matte coating cuts glare by 35%. It has DC Dimming to reduce flicker and TÜV Rheinland Flicker Free and Low Blue Light certification. For entertainment it supports IMAX Enhanced, with four speakers, DTS and Hi-Res Audio.
Thin, light, all-day battery
The body is a single piece of aluminium alloy, 6.72 mm thin and 618 g. HONOR claims the 10,100mAh battery gives up to 16 hours of video playback. It charges at 45W.
Inside
It runs a Snapdragon 6s Gen 2 with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. HONOR RAM Turbo adds 8GB of virtual RAM, and a microSD slot takes cards up to 2TB. Software is MagicOS 10 on Android 16. Extras include AI Memo for recording and summarising meetings, PC-style file management, and HONOR Connect for sharing files with iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. HONOR Kids gives parents screen-time limits, content filtering and alerts when a child sits too close to the screen.
Our take
In our view this price gets you a large matte 13-inch screen and a big battery, which suits anyone who wants a big display for series, study or note-taking. Know going in that real RAM is only 4GB. Heavy multitaskers or gamers may see slowdowns, and virtual RAM is no substitute for the real thing. If you're buying, ordering before October 31 is the better deal because the keyboard comes free.
