What’s actually slowing this PC down?
Pick the symptom - the matching free tool is one click away.
HONOR’s South Africa product page identifies the phone as the HONOR X5d s. Its distinguishing feature is a touch-enabled rear display for rear-camera selfies and at-a-glance call alerts and media controls. HONOR also lists a 6000mAh typical battery capacity, with a rated capacity of 5850mAh. The manufacturer’s published specifications do not establish a price, release date or confirmed initial-market availability.
What the rear touchscreen does
HONOR describes the rear display as a touch-enabled surface that can be used to take selfies with the rear camera. The company also says it can show call alerts and provide media playback controls at a glance. These are manufacturer-described functions; the official product page does not state the rear screen’s size. A secondary report by phablet.jp describes it as 2 inches, but that measurement is not confirmed on HONOR’s page.

Using the rear camera for selfies could be useful when its 50MP camera is preferable to the front-facing camera, but HONOR’s page does not provide front-camera specifications or independent image-quality testing. See HONOR’s X5d s product overview and the phablet.jp announcement report.
Battery capacity: typical versus rated
HONOR lists a 6000mAh typical capacity and a 5850mAh rated capacity. These are two different capacity figures, so 6000mAh should not be described as the rated value. The product page does not provide independent battery-life results or a charging-time figure.

Price and availability remain unconfirmed
The available product information does not establish the X5d s’s price, sale date or confirmed initial-market availability. A Nepal report discusses an X5D and X6D series launch, but it does not establish X5d s-specific pricing or availability. Related model names—including X5d and X5d Plus—should not be used to fill in those missing details; their published configurations may differ. The Nepal report is available at Insurance Khabar.
