#TechPH - This Phone Survived an Epic Boys’ Night Out—Literally
Nights with friends can get wild—stories stretch long past midnight, laughter gets louder, and before you know it, someone’s phone ends up dangerously close to the edge of the table. That chaotic, anything‑can‑happen energy pretty much sums up the vibe at the final run of Boys Night Out, the iconic radio show that has been part of people’s nightly routines since the late ‘90s. And right at the center of all the fun was a smartphone that seemed determined to prove it could keep up: the HONOR X9d 5G.
If you grew up tuning in to Sam Y.G., Slick Rick, Tony Toni—and more recently Tin Gamboa and Gino Quillamor—you know that their brand of humor and candid real‑talk shaped late‑night FM radio. After decades of storytelling, teasing, and unfiltered conversations about life, their farewell celebration deserved something unforgettable. HONOR Philippines jumped right in to help power that last hurrah.
What made the night even more interesting was a running challenge: who’s tougher—the Boys or HONOR’s new X9d 5G? And honestly, for a group known for pushing limits, it’s saying something that the phone managed to hold its own. The hosts threw everything they could at it, and the device barely flinched. They even admitted they were impressed by how it stayed solid no matter what they put it through..
The X9d 5G wasn’t just there to survive the chaos—it was built for it. With SGS Triple Resistant Certification, IP69K water resistance, and HONOR’s Ultra‑Bounce Anti‑Drop technology, it’s the kind of phone you don’t have to baby. Add a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, RAM Turbo, up to 256GB storage, and a battery that stretches up to three days, and suddenly you have a device that steps into your life ready for anything. The 108MP AI camera and 6.79‑inch OLED display just complete the package, making it easy to capture moments even during nights like this one..
And because a big night wouldn’t be complete without a big reveal, HONOR announced that the phone comes in Reddish Brown, Sunrise Gold, and Midnight Black, with an introductory price of ₱17,999. Pre‑orders run from January 9 to 23, and here’s the twist: buyers get a chance to win a Tesla Cybertruck. Now that’s a flex.
Seeing Boys Night Out mark the end of an era with a device as tough as the memories they’ve created just feels fitting. It’s a blend of nostalgia and new beginnings—a reminder that good stories don’t fade; they just evolve, much like the tech we use to capture them.
For anyone who loves a phone that can thrive in the same unpredictable environments we do—rowdy nights, long trips, nonstop multitasking—the HONOR X9d 5G might just be your next sidekick.
