Malaysia is first to get the HONOR 600 Series.

HONOR has officially unveiled its latest “accessible flagship” lineup, bringing both the HONOR 600 and HONOR 600 Pro to the global stage.

The series focuses on combining flagship-level features with more attainable pricing, starting at RM2,599.

Pre-orders are now open until April 29, 2026. Early buyers can enjoy a RM200 instant rebate along with free gifts and protection bundles worth up to RM1,935.

For the HONOR 600 Pro, customers get a free Fujifilm Instax Mini LiPlay+ alongside extended warranty and damage protection. Meanwhile, HONOR 600 buyers receive a free HONOR CHOICE Watch 2 Epic with similar coverage.

The devices will be available starting April 30, 2026 through HONOR’s official stores, online platforms, and partner retailers.

Flagship features come to the N Series

With the HONOR 600 Series, the company is pushing its N Series further into flagship territory.

Leading the charge is a 200MP main camera with a large 1/1.4-inch sensor. The Pro model adds a 50MP telephoto lens with up to 120x zoom and enhanced stabilization, while the standard version supports up to 30x zoom.

Both devices are designed to handle low-light scenarios with improved night processing and color accuracy.

AI Image to Video 2.0 also returns as a headline feature. It allows users to turn still images into short video clips using prompts, templates, and multiple reference images.

On the performance side, the HONOR 600 Pro runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, marking the first time the series gets an Elite-tier chip.

The standard HONOR 600 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, offering solid gains in both CPU and GPU performance for everyday use.

Bright display, big battery, and added durability

Both devices feature a 6.57-inch display with up to 8000 nits peak brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate.

HONOR also highlights its Eye Comfort Display tech, which includes high-frequency PWM dimming and adaptive brightness controls for long viewing sessions.

Battery is another key focus.

The series packs up to a 7000mAh battery, paired with 80W wired charging and reverse charging support. The Pro model also adds 50W wireless charging.

Durability sees an upgrade as well, with IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings alongside SGS 5-star drop and crush certification.

Three weeks after the launch of the vivo X300 Ultra, there’s another “Ultra” flagship gleaming on the horizon.

The much-awaited (and much teased) OPPO Find X9 Ultra has finally reached the Eastern shores.

X-treme Cameras

On paper, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra packs the most extreme camera system in a smartphone so far.

First, it has a 200MP f/1.5 main camera based on the newer (and ginormous) Sony LYT-901 1/1.18-inch sensor. This also happens to be the same camera sensor used by the vivo X300 Ultra — just with a tighter 35mm focal length and slightly narrower f/1.85 lens opening.

Second, its 50MP f/2.0 ultra-wide lens with Sony’s 1/1.95-inch LYT-600 sensor.

But, what makes this camera system more extreme? It’s the inclusion of dual periscope telephoto lenses with larger sensors compared to its closest rival, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Find X9 Ultra’s biggest accomplishment can be seen with its 200MP 3x periscope telephoto. This is based from OmniVision’s OV52A sensor at 1/1.28 inches.

The next periscope module is a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JNL 1/2.75-inch sensor. This second zoom shooter can capture 10x optically-zoomed shots, 20x “optical quality” snaps, all the way to 120x.

A dedicated camera button stays — now in the signature Hasselblad orange shade.

All in all, these are ultimate upgrades to the quad 50MP camera setup of last year’s OPPO Find X8 Ultra.

For video shooting, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra is capable of shooting up to 4K/120fps or 8K in 30fps. LOG Mode is also supported via OPPO’s O-Log2 with support for Custom 3D LUTs.

X-citing Partnership

The Find X9 Ultra’s massive camera module are all co-produced with Hasselblad — further solidifying the partnership between the Swedish camera brand and the Chinese phone maker.

To make things even more X-citing, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra has a special edition Hasselblad Earth Explorer Kit.

This optional camera kit consists of a massive 300mm LUMO telephoto kit lens, camera lens ring module, set of filters, adapters, and hood, pouch to house them all in, an embroidered Hasselblad lanyard.

Heck! Even a custom camera grip case reminiscent of Hasselblad’s very own X2D 100C Earth Explorer camera.

Speaking of, the OPPO Find X9 Ultra comes in the Tundra Umber colorway of the same earth-like hues and signature Hasselblad orange detailing.

If that isn’t your cup of tea, there are two more color options: Polar Glacier (white) and Canyon Orange. Albeit, the special grip case is only available in one color.

If the Hasselblad Kit already feels like an overkill, check out the TILTA KHRONOS Kit suited for videographers and aspiring filmmakers alike.

It’s a different set-up with follow-focus power handle, cooling back clip, ND filter adapter ring, side handle, and expansion dock.

X-quisite Flagship

Just like any 2026 flagship, the Find X9 Ultra runs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC based on the 3nm process.

LPDDR5X memory choices are either  between 12- or 16GB while its UFS 4.1 internal storage now has a bigger 1TB option (the X8 Ultra has a 512GB limitation).

Its 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED display has been improved too. Now, it has an even smoother 144Hz refresh rate with brightness as low as 1 nit.

Compared to the 6100mAh battery of its predecessor, the Find X9 Ultra has a boosted 7050mAh Si/C battery. It’s currently the largest capacity in any Ultra flagship slab so far.

However, wired and wireless charging speeds remain at 100W and 50W respectively.

X-plit Strategy

The Find X9 Ultra isn’t the only phone being launched.

OPPO aims for a split strategy this time by separately unveiling the Find X9s Pro and Find X9s for the Chinese and global markets respectively. JSYK, these are two different phone models.

OPPO adds an iPhone-like “Camera Plateau” cutout to Find X9 Pro’s camera system — highlighting various earth-like textures. That system includes dual 200MP Hasselblad cameras (main and telephoto). On the other hand, the ultra-wide camera is capped at 50MP.

Meanwhile, the Find X9s borrows the same square cutout of last year’s Find X9 series with a consistent triple 50MP camera system.

Also, the Find X9s Pro has its own Special Camera Kit. The Find X9s doesn’t have one.

Moreover, the Find X9s Pro rocks MediaTek’s flagship-level Dimensity 9500. While the Find X9s has the slightly-underpowered Dimensity 9500s chipset.

While both phones support LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 ROM protocols, configurations are different. The Find X9s Pro has choices between 12 or 16GB of memory and up to 1TB of storage. However, the Find X9s only has a lone 12GB memory with limited storage options between 256 or 512GB of storage.

Surprisingly, the Find X9s Pro has the smaller 6.32-inch AMOLED display — a departure from the 6.78-inch Find X9 Pro. Whereas the X9s boasts a bigger screen at 6.59 inches, which is the same as the Find X9.

The only thing these models both share are the 7025mAh Si/C battery and 80W wired SUPERVOOC speeds. Unfortunately, only the X9s Pro supports 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging that the base X9s lacks.

Ultimately, the Find X9 Ultra and X9s series all possess triple IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings for utmost durability.
