The Honor Pad V9 measures 259.1 x 176.1 mm with a thickness of just 6.1 mm and a weight of 475 g, giving it a relatively slim and manageable physical profile for an 11.5-inch tablet. A stylus is included in the box, though it lacks tilt sensitivity. The device does not come with a detachable or backlit keyboard, and it offers no water resistance rating.
The Honor Pad V9 features an 11.5″ IPS LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 2800 x 1840 pixels and a pixel density of 291 ppi. Its 144Hz refresh rate allows for smoother on-screen motion, while the panel itself is not an e-paper display and does not carry branded damage-resistant or sapphire glass. The screen does not support HDR10 or HDR10+, so high-dynamic-range content playback is not available on this display.
The Honor Pad V9 is driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350, a 4nm chipset with an 8-thread CPU configuration running at up to 3.35 GHz, supported by big.LITTLE and HMP scheduling for efficient load distribution. It comes with 12GB of RAM clocked at 8533 MHz across 4 memory channels, a maximum memory capacity of 24GB, and 512GB of internal storage with no external memory slot available. The Mali G615 MC6 GPU runs at 1400 MHz, supports DirectX 12 and OpenCL 2, and benefits from integrated graphics, while the chipset also includes integrated LTE, TrustZone security, and an NX bit. The tablet ships with Android 15, scores 4700 in Geekbench 6 multi-core and 1536 in single-core, and achieves a maximum memory bandwidth of 68.2 GB/s, with a 4 MB L3 cache rounding out the memory subsystem.
The Honor Pad V9 has a 13 MP rear camera with a CMOS sensor, an f/2 aperture, and no optical zoom, capable of recording video at 2160p and 30 fps with support for slow-motion recording. Autofocus options include touch autofocus and continuous autofocus during video, while manual controls extend to ISO, focus, exposure, and white balance, though manual shutter speed is not available. The rear camera is backed by a single LED flash with a video light, but lacks a BSI sensor, optical image stabilization, dual-tone or RGB flash, and does not support HDR10 or Dolby Vision recording. An 8 MP front camera is present with an f/2 aperture and no front-facing flash. Neither in-camera panoramas, 360° panoramas, burst mode, nor 3D photo or video recording are supported, though HDR mode is available for stills.
The Honor Pad V9 includes stereo speakers for audio output, but does not have a 3.5 mm headphone jack or a built-in radio. On the wireless audio side, none of the higher-quality Bluetooth codec options are supported — aptX, aptX HD, aptX Low Latency, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, and LDAC are all absent.
The Honor Pad V9 houses a 10100 mAh rechargeable battery with fast charging support and a battery level indicator. The battery is not removable and wireless charging is not available.
The Honor Pad V9 supports Wi-Fi 4, 5, and 6 alongside Bluetooth 5.2, and connects via USB Type-C, though it lacks cellular connectivity, 5G support, NFC, HDMI output, GPS, Ethernet, and an infrared sensor. On the software side, it runs as a multi-user system with widgets, split-screen, picture-in-picture, dark mode, dynamic and theme customization, a media picker, full-page screenshots, extra dim mode, app offloading, child lock, battery health check, and the ability to play games while they are downloading. Privacy features include location privacy options, camera and microphone access controls, clipboard warnings, and app tracking blocking, though cross-site tracking blocking, Mail Privacy Protection, and Wi-Fi password sharing are not available. The tablet also supports on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, sharing intents, customizable notifications, notification permission controls, and device tracking, while sensors include a gyroscope and accelerometer — a compass, barometer, fingerprint scanner, iris scanner, and 3D facial recognition are all absent. Direct OS vendor updates are not provided, and focus modes and Quick Start are not supported.
The Honor Pad V9 uses DDR5 memory.
