Honor X5c All Set to Launch in Pakistan Expected Arrival in Early November

By Team Flare | October 29, 2025: The budget smartphone market in Pakistan is about to get another strong contender. Honor is preparing to roll out its Honor X5c in Pakistan, and sources close to the company suggest the phone will make its local debut within the first week of November 2025.

After gaining popularity in China earlier this month, the X5c is finally ready to hit Pakistani shelves. It targets users who want a stylish, reliable phone without spending too much money and it looks like Honor has packed enough features to make this device stand out in the entry-level segment.

Display and Design Simple Yet Smart

The Honor X5c follows the brand’s signature minimalist design. It has a flat body that feels solid in hand and carries a subtle matte finish on the back. The display is a 6.74-inch TFT panel, large enough for comfortable scrolling, watching videos, and light gaming.

While the resolution is HD+ (720p), which translates to roughly 260ppi, the phone makes up for it with a 90Hz refresh rate something rarely seen at this price point. That higher refresh rate makes everyday animations smoother and more responsive, especially during app transitions and scrolling.

Software and Performance

Out of the box, the Honor X5c runs the latest Android 15 operating system layered with MagicOS 9. That’s a major plus since most budget phones still ship with older Android versions.

Under the hood, the phone uses the MediaTek Helio G81 chipset, paired with the Mali-G52 GPU. These components are not new but are tried and tested for stable everyday performance. Users can expect decent multitasking, smooth app switching, and reliable performance for casual gaming.

As for memory options, Honor hasn’t confirmed the configurations for Pakistan yet. However, based on other markets, the phone may launch in 4GB+64GB and 4GB+128GB versions. If both arrive, it’ll give buyers some flexibility based on their budget and storage needs.

Cameras Practical for Everyday Use

Cameras on the Honor X5c are designed for everyday photography rather than pro-level shooting. In some markets, the phone comes with a 50MP main camera, but the version expected in Pakistan will likely have a 13MP primary sensor paired with a 5MP front-facing selfie camera.

This setup should be sufficient for social media shots, quick portraits, and casual video recording. However, users shouldn’t expect flagship-level detail or low-light performance. It’s a fair tradeoff considering the price segment Honor is targeting.

Battery Life and Charging

One of the strongest aspects of the Honor X5c is its 5260mAh battery. Combined with the power-efficient Helio G81 chip and a low-resolution display, users can expect full-day use on a single charge possibly more with light usage.

Charging, however, is capped at 15W, which is on the slower side compared to modern fast-charging standards. It will take about two hours to fully charge, so users will need to be patient. The phone uses the Li-Po battery type, which contributes to its slim yet sturdy frame, measuring under 7.9mm thick.

Connectivity and Other Features

Honor hasn’t stripped away essentials on this budget model. The Honor X5c comes equipped with:

• Side-mounted fingerprint scanner

• Dual-band Wi-Fi support

• 3.5mm headphone jack

• Dual SIM support

These practical features make it an easy daily driver for students, office users, and anyone switching from a feature phone to a smartphone.

Expected Price in Pakistan

While Honor has yet to announce the official Pakistani price, the global pricing gives us a fair estimate. Based on conversions and import costs, the Honor X5c price in Pakistan is expected to fall between PKR 34,999 and PKR 39,999.

If that happens, the phone will directly compete with models like the Infinix Smart 9, Tecno Pop 9, and Realme Note 50 all of which are already performing well in the same price bracket.

Verdict – A Solid Budget Choice

From Team Flare’s perspective, the Honor X5c looks like a promising deal for budget-conscious buyers. It delivers a large screen, long battery life, and the latest Android 15 experience things that really matter in daily use.

However, those expecting heavy gaming or flagship-level cameras should manage their expectations. This phone is built for reliability, not raw power.

If you’re looking for a durable, feature-packed budget phone under 40,000 rupees, the Honor X5c is definitely worth waiting for.
