Honor has expanded its budget smartphone lineup with the X7e Plus 5G, targeting users who prioritize battery life and durability over high-resolution screens. The device launches in Qatar and Oman with pricing that starts at around $275, making it a practical option for buyers seeking long-lasting power without a premium cost. This release follows a similar strategy from the vendor, as we touched on Honor X7e Launches with Massive Battery in our earlier Honor coverage.

Rugged smartphone targets budget buyers with massive power and durability

The Honor X7e Plus 5G runs Android 16 with MagicOS 10 and is powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 chipset. It includes a dedicated AI button for quick access to AI features, aligning with current software trends in the mid-range segment. The phone measures 168.3 x 78.54 x 8.3mm and weighs 216.5 grams, offering a substantial feel in hand.

Specifications

  • Display: 6.87-inch TFT LCD, HD+ (1592 x 720), 120Hz
  • Processor: Snapdragon 4 Gen 4
  • Battery: 8,100mAh typical, 45W charging
  • Durability: IP68, IP69, IP69K, SGS Premium Drop and Crush Resistance
  • OS: Android 16 with MagicOS 10

A standout feature is the 8,100mAh typical battery, which supports 45W SuperCharge for replenishing power. The 6.87-inch TFT LCD display provides an HD+ resolution of 1592 x 720 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate, reaching up to 1,020 nits of peak brightness. Memory configurations go up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage for local data.

Durability is a key focus, with the device carrying IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings alongside SGS Premium Drop and Crush Resistance certification. Photography is handled by a 50-megapixel primary rear camera and an auxiliary sensor, while selfies use a 5-megapixel front camera. These specs position the phone as a rugged workhorse rather than a multimedia flagship.

Pricing for the 6GB+128GB edition is QAR 999 (around $274), and the 8GB+256GB model costs QAR 1,099 (around $302). Honor launched the device in Qatar and Oman on June 13, 2026, but has not confirmed which other markets will receive it. Buyers in these regions can now access a high-capacity battery phone at a competitive entry-level price point.
