• Trend Alert: Sleek design, must-have colors
• Snap Goals: Pro-level pics, Insta-ready
• Smart Hustle: Long battery, smooth moves

Let's be real, you want a phone that looks good, feels good, and doesn't make your wallet cry. You're scrolling, snapping, and hustling, and you need a device that keeps up with your vibe. Enter the HONOR X8c, your new style essential.

HONOR just dropped the X8c in the Philippines, and it's basically your ticket to looking good without breaking the bank. Think: a phone that's as stylish as your feed, but without the influencer price tag.

GMA Sparkle Artists at the official launch of HONOR X8c held on March 11, 2025 at Hydro Super Club in Quezon City.

Level Up Your Photo Game

Okay, let's talk pics. We all know a fire photo is non-negotiable. The HONOR X8c's 108MP main camera is like having a pro photographer in your pocket. "We wanted to give young creators the tools to capture their vision," says Stephen Cheng, VP for Marketing at HONOR Philippines. "The X8c's camera lets you snap stunning shots, day or night."

And those selfies? Flawless. The 50MP front camera with AI wide-angle and AI Eraser means your group shots are always on point. Whether you're capturing that perfect OOTD or a spontaneous hangout, your feed is about to get a major glow-up.

I am loving the iPhone-like design language of HONOR X8c and I'm sure that stylish young consumers will also find it very attractive.

Style That Sticks, Power That Lasts

This phone isn't just a pretty face. It's built to handle your busy life. At 174g and super slim, it slips into your pocket or bag without weighing you down. Plus, it's tough. Water and dust resistant? Check. Anti-drop protection? Double check.

HONOR X8c is available in three colorways, namely, Moonlight White, Midnight Black, and Marrs Green

Despire having a stylish form factor, HONOR X8c is tough and durable!

This handset can survive being dropped from a height of 1.8 meters and it's also splash-proof.

If you want a handset that looks great and is also tough enough to keep up with your busy lifestyle as a student or your professional, you should definitely check out HONOR X8c.

And the battery life? Forget about those midday panic charges. The 5000mAh battery with 35W HONOR SuperCharge means you can stay powered up all day. 

"We know young consumers are always on the go," Cheng explains. "The X8c's battery keeps up with your lifestyle, so you can focus on what matters." And with up to 512GB of storage, you'll have room for all your content.

Another thing I love about the HONOR X8c is its very large 512GB of internal storage which is a real treat on a smartphone in this price point. Talk about having more than enough storage space for your photos and videos as a content creator.

Smart Moves, Smooth Vibes

The HONOR X8c runs on MagicOS 9.0, which is like having a personal assistant in your phone. Magic Portal and Magic Capsule make multitasking a breeze, and AI Translation and AI Eraser help you stay productive.

The 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate is perfect for streaming your favorite shows or gaming on the go. And with eye comfort features, you can scroll for hours without getting tired eyes.

Ready to flex your style? The HONOR X8c comes in Midnight Black, Moonlight White, and the oh-so-trendy Marrs Green for only PHP 13,999. Pre-order online or in-store until March 21 and snag a free HONOR Bluetooth Speaker II. It's time to upgrade your tech without emptying your pockets.
