Honor X7e silently launched with a 7,500mAh battery

Honor X7e: A Budget Phone with a Massive Battery That Just Won’t Quit

Honor just quietly pulled the curtains back on its latest budget-friendly device, and it’s packing a feature that will make even flagship users a little jealous. The new Honor X7e has officially hit select global markets, and while it stays humble as a 4G device, its battery capacity is anything but modest.

The 7,500mAh Battery Powerhouse

Let’s jump straight to the headliner: the battery. While most modern smartphones settle for the industry-standard 5,000mAh, the Honor X7e packs a massive 7,500mAh battery. This is effectively a power bank with a phone attached. To keep things moving, it supports 45W wired charging, which is a solid speed for this price bracket. It is worth noting that in some regions, the capacity might be slightly lower at 7,000mAh, but either way, you’re looking at multi-day usage on a single charge.

Smooth Visuals and Reliable Performance

Under the hood, the X7e is powered by the MediaTek Helio G81 Ultra chipset. It’s not a gaming powerhouse, but it’s more than capable of handling daily tasks, social media, and streaming. Interestingly, it ships with MagicOS 10.0 based on Android 16, putting it ahead of the curve in terms of software versions.

The front of the device features a 6.6-inch LCD display. While the resolution stays at HD+, Honor has included a 120Hz refresh rate. That high refresh rate is a huge win for a budget device, ensuring that scrolling through your feeds feels snappy and fluid.

Camera and Build Quality

On the back, you’ll find a clean camera module housing a 50MP main sensor. It’s paired with an auxiliary lens to help with depth and detail. For those quick selfies or video calls, there is a 5MP front-facing camera tucked into the display.

Despite being a budget-oriented phone, Honor didn’t skimp on the practical extras:

• IP64 Rating: Better-than-average protection against dust and splashes.
• Audio: A 3.5mm headphone jack for the purists who aren’t ready to go fully wireless.
• Security: A fast, side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
• Dedicated AI Key: A one-tap shortcut for smart features.

Pricing and Availability

The Honor X7e has made its debut in Malaysia in two stylish colors: Midnight Black and Sunset Orange. It is currently offered in a single configuration with 6GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, which is plenty of room for photos and apps.

The price? It’s sitting at MYR 899 (approximately $225). For anyone looking for a reliable daily driver that refuses to die mid-day, the Honor X7e is a very tempting proposition.
