In the world of tech, we often talk about “durability,” but HONOR just took that definition to a whole new level. On January 9, HONOR Philippines officially pulled the curtain back on the HONOR X9d 5G, and they didn’t just bring a new phone—they brought a literal tank to the party.
To celebrate the launch of what is being hailed as the toughest phone of the year, HONOR is giving away a Tesla Cybertruck worth PhP17 million. Yes, you read that right. One lucky tech enthusiast is going to drive away in the world’s most polarizing and powerful electric truck just by upgrading their smartphone.
The Ultimate Power Matchup: Why a Cybertruck?
As HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng put it: “What better way to prove the toughest phone of 2026 than to put it up against the toughest car?”
The Tesla Cybertruck isn’t just a vehicle; it’s a statement. With its ultra-hard 30X cold-rolled stainless-steel exoskeleton and shatter-resistant armor glass, it’s the only vehicle that matches the “indestructible” energy of the HONOR X9d 5G. Valued at ₱17,000,000, this EV titan features:
- Beastly Performance: 0-100 km/h in as little as 2.7 seconds.
- Off-Road Dominance: Electronically adaptive air suspension to tackle any terrain.
- Futuristic Utility: A massive 6,600-lb payload capacity and a built-in “Vault” for all your gear.
Meet the HONOR X9d 5G: Built for the Bold
The phone itself is a marvel of engineering. If you’re prone to “butterfingers,” this is the device you’ve been waiting for. It features the industry’s first SGS Triple Resistant Premium Performance Certification, meaning it’s protected against drops, water, and dust.
What makes it so tough?
- 2.5-Meter Drop Protection: Thanks to the Ultra-Bounce Anti-Drop Technology and a new Non-Newtonian fluid material, this phone can survive falls that would shatter most flagships.
- The “Air-Gun” Proof Screen: Reinforced with ultra-tough deep-tempered glass, it’s designed to withstand impact from 10 different types of stone surfaces—and even air-gun shots.
- The “8 Era” Battery: It houses a massive 8300mAh Silicon-carbon battery. That’s industry-leading capacity designed to last for days, supported by a 6-year ultra-durable battery lifespan.
- Pro-Grade Optics: A 108MP Ultra-sensing Camera with OIS + EIS ensures your shots are crisp, whether you’re at a concert or on a midnight drive.
How to Enter the ₱17M Giveaway
Winning the Cybertruck is simpler than you might think. HONOR has turned the pre-order phase into the most high-stakes lottery in the country.

- Purchase Window: Secure your device between January 9 and January 23, 2026.
- Where to Buy: Head to any HONOR Experience or Partner Store nationwide, or shop via their official stores on Lazada, Shopee, or TikTok Shop.
A Star-Studded Launch
The launch wasn’t just about hardware; it was a cultural moment. The event featured high-octane performances by P-pop sensations 6ENSE and YARA, culminating in a legendary set by Spongecola. The energy was kept at a peak by the iconic Boys Night Out trio—Sam YG, DJ Tony Toni, and Slick Rick.
Final Verdict: At ₱17,999, the HONOR X9d 5G is already a steal for the specs alone. Throwing in a chance to own a Tesla Cybertruck makes this arguably the most “no-brainer” tech purchase of 2026.
