HONOR X9e Pro Takes On the Hidden Cost of a Cracked Phone

Dubai – November 04, 2026 -- The HONOR X9e Pro, the first Pro model in the HONOR X Series, is built to survive drops of up to three metres, aiming to spare owners the cost of a cracked screen.

A cracked screen costs more than the repair bill

Damage can affect display visibility, touch responsiveness and overall usability. For mid-range phones, screen replacement can account for a substantial share of the original purchase price. Owners then have to choose between paying for repairs, living with a damaged phone or buying a replacement.

Downtime adds a second cost

A broken phone can mean missed business calls, delayed replies to important messages and trouble opening work documents. Banking apps, digital payments, navigation and authentication codes also depend on a working device.

HONOR X9e Pro Launches With 11,000mAh Battery and IP69K Rating

DUBAI – October 29, 2026 -- HONOR's X9e Pro smartphone is now available, pairing an 11,000mAh silicon-carbon battery with 3-metre drop resistance, IP69K water protection, a 10,000-nit peak-brightness display and a 108MP camera.

It is built to survive drops onto marble

HONOR says the phone is designed to withstand falls from up to three metres onto smooth marble. It is also built to handle drops from up to 1.2 metres at multiple angles.

The protection comes from reinforced corners, high-strength metal supports and specialised display adhesives. Together they help absorb and distribute impact forces, shielding critical internal components.

HONOR X9e Pro Fits an 11,000mAh Battery in an 8.08mm Body

DUBAI – – October 29, 2026 -- The HONOR X9e Pro packs an 11,000mAh battery into a body about 8.08mm thin and 203g, so it handles like an everyday smartphone rather than a bulky rugged device.

The battery uses fourth-generation silicon-carbon cells

HONOR's fourth-generation silicon-carbon battery raises energy density to store more power in limited space. The company also redesigned the mainboard, display structure and mid-frame to make room for it. AI Power Saving manages consumption across reading, scrolling, video playback and background apps.

Charging runs at 80W with HONOR SuperCharge, and 27W wired reverse charging lets the phone power compatible devices.

HONOR frames the phone as the latest step in an X Series that has raised its durability bar with each generation. Two of those generations have also earned Guinness World Records titles.

X9a and X9b made the screen and frame tougher

The X9a used 0.65mm reinforced glass rated to withstand more than 900MPa of stress. HONOR tested it with marble drops, squeezing, rolling and steel-ball impact.

The X9b added 360-degree whole-device protection and drop resistance from up to 1.5 metres. It became the first smartphone in the industry to receive Switzerland's SGS Five-Star Overall Drop Resistance Certification.

LG's Wireless Wallpaper TV Hits UAE Hotspots in a Winter Roadshow

Dubai – – October 17, 2026 -- UAE residents can see LG's new OLED evo W6 True Wireless Wallpaper TV in person at pop-up locations across the country this winter, and one visitor will win the TV at the end of the campaign.

The tour starts at The Lotus Lounge at Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort and runs from 16 to 19 October 2026. LG describes the stop as the regional debut of the W6.

The W6 is 9.95 mm deep and has no cable clutter

The W6 mounts flush against the wall with zero gaps. LG's Zero Connect wireless technology sends lossless 4K video and audio to an AV box placed up to 10 meters away, so no cables are visible.

It is also billed as the world's first True Wireless TV to transmit 4K at 165Hz. It supports Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Variable Refresh Rate, NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium.

Gorenje G800 Oven: 77 Litres and 70+ Auto Programs

Dubai – – October 15, 2026 -- The Gorenje G800 oven combines a 77-litre interior, more than 70 automatic cooking programs and a self-cleaning cycle, built for evenings when two dinner guests turn into six.

A 77-litre cavity replaces the two-batch dinner

The large interior takes wide trays without wrestling them into place. Several dishes can run at once across all shelves, so roasting, baking and reheating happen in parallel instead of in two rounds. According to the source, heat stays consistent across every level, which removes the need to rotate trays every fifteen minutes.

AutoBake handles more than 70 dishes from weight alone

The AutoBake feature includes over 70 pre-tested programs. You select a dish, enter its weight and press start. There is no preheating and no temperature calculation. Gorenje's pitch is to "press start and get on with your evening."
