HONOR has confirmed that its latest flagship smartphone, the Magic9 Pro Max, will soon be making its way to Malaysia. However, given that the device is part of a larger lineup launched in China, there is a possibility that the vanilla Magic9 could also make its local debut.
The company also revealed that the Magic9 Pro Max has been named the official cinematic imaging smartphone of the 35th Malaysia Film Festival (FFM35). This follows a partnership between HONOR and the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (FINAS), with the awards ceremony scheduled to take place at Istana Budaya on 21 November 2026.
To recap the initial launch in China, the HONOR Magic9 Pro Max is revealed to be the more premium offering of the two. It features a 6.8-inch LTPO OLED display and is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset. Memory-wise, the phone comes with 16GB of RAM and a maximum of 1TB of storage.
