HONOR Philippines is celebrating another milestone as it officially opens new HONOR Experience Stores in SM City La Union and SM City Olongapo, coinciding with the nationwide rollout of the brand’s newest all-angle water-resistant smartphone — the HONOR X7d.

Adding star power to the grand opening were Kapuso celebrities Lianne Valentin and Sean Lucas, who joined HONOR executives, partner dealers from Fonerange and PCC Zone, and SM Mall management in welcoming hundreds of fans and shoppers to the event.

A celebration of innovation and connection
“The day has come for our HONOR stars and fans to get their hands on our newest water-resistant AI smartphone, the HONOR X7d,” said Stephen Cheng, Vice President of HONOR Philippines. “We are truly grateful to our HONOR community in La Union and Olongapo for their unwavering support. This celebration is a testament to our promise of bringing the HONOR experience closer to Ilocanos and Olongapeños.”

Crowds gathered early to witness the store launch, with many eager to test the HONOR X7d’s standout feature — its all-angle water resistance. Attendees were invited to participate in a live water challenge, submerging demo units into tanks to prove the device’s durability against spills and splashes.

Fans were treated to a special performance by Lianne Valentin and Sean Lucas, who brought energy and excitement to the event with their songs and dance numbers. The pair also joined fans for selfies and quick chats, adding to the fun, festival-like atmosphere.

Packed with a massive 6500mAh battery, the HONOR X7d offers one of the longest-lasting power performances in its price range, promising up to five years of Super Durable battery life. It is also the first smartphone in its segment to feature an AI Button, allowing users to open customized apps or run system tasks with a single click, and to activate AI Translation or AI Creation with a long press — delivering a smoother, smarter, and more personal experience.
