Singer Lyca Gairanod brought a musical highlight to HONOR Philippines’ HONOR 600S First Day Sale at SM Megamall on October 10, 2026, performing her inspiring song “Pwede Nang Mangarap” during the grand opening of the brand’s new HONOR Alpha Store at the mall’s Cyberzone.

The event combined the arrival of the HONOR 600S with the opening of a new retail space designed to bring HONOR products and customer support services closer to Filipino consumers. Gairanod’s performance added an entertainment element to the occasion, placing a familiar Filipino voice alongside the technology brand’s latest smartphone offering.

For attendees, the gathering brought together two key moments for HONOR Philippines: the first-day sale of a new device and the introduction of a store that includes a dedicated service center. The smartphone was the main focus of the product launch, while Gairanod’s rendition of “Pwede Nang Mangarap” provided one of the celebration’s featured performances.

Gairanod’s appearance brought music into an event centered on mobile technology. Her performance of “Pwede Nang Mangarap” was a featured part of the grand opening of the HONOR Alpha Store at SM Megamall, giving the launch a distinctly entertainment-focused moment.

The song’s message of pursuing dreams offered a natural connection to the theme of aspiration. While the event introduced customers to the HONOR 600S and its features, Gairanod’s performance brought the focus beyond product specifications and into the realm of music and personal inspiration.

The singer’s participation also underscored the place of live entertainment in consumer events, where a product launch can serve as an opportunity to bring technology and popular culture together. In this case, the occasion paired HONOR’s newest smartphone with a performance from a Filipino singer known for her musical journey.

Gairanod’s performance remained one of the event’s central entertainment highlights, as the celebration marked the smartphone’s first day of sale and the opening of the new store.

The grand opening of the HONOR Alpha Store at SM Megamall Cyberzone was another major component of the October 10 event. The new location gives customers a physical space to explore the brand’s products, while its service center provides an additional point of access for customer support.

The opening coincided with the first-day sale of the HONOR 600S, connecting the launch of the new smartphone with the expansion of HONOR’s retail presence. Customers visiting the store can explore the device and learn about the features available across the brand’s product range.

The addition of a service center is particularly relevant for customers who prefer in-person assistance alongside their technology purchases. By incorporating service support into the store, HONOR aims to offer more convenience to consumers who need help with their devices.

The SM Megamall location also places the new store within the mall’s Cyberzone, an area associated with technology and electronics retail. Its opening formed part of the wider occasion that introduced the HONOR 600S to consumers through a first-day sale.

The HONOR 600S is designed for users who rely on their smartphones for several parts of daily life, including work, communication, entertainment, and content creation. Its specifications combine a large battery, fast charging, water and dust resistance, and AI-powered functions.

One of its main features is an 8,100mAh battery supported by 45W HONOR SuperCharge. The combination is intended to support extended use while providing a faster charging option when the battery needs replenishing.

The smartphone also carries IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for water and dust resistance. These ratings indicate tested levels of protection under specified conditions, rather than making the device impervious to every form of water or dust exposure.

HONOR has also highlighted the phone’s Cushioning and Fall Protection Architecture, which received SGS Premium Performance Certification for Drop and Crush Resistance. The device earned a five-star All-Round Drop Resistance rating, with drop protection tested up to 2.5 meters under controlled laboratory conditions.

These durability features form a major part of the HONOR 600S offering, particularly for users who want a smartphone built to withstand the demands of everyday handling.

Beyond its battery and durability features, the HONOR 600S includes functions intended to make content creation more accessible. The smartphone comes with a dedicated AI Button and HONOR AI Image to Video 2.0, a feature that allows users to turn still images into video content.

The AI-powered tool provides another option for users who create and share material through digital platforms. Instead of relying solely on conventional photography, users can use the image-to-video function to give selected still images movement.

The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 Mobile Platform and features a 6.87-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It also comes with 400% Volume Dual Speakers and a 50-megapixel main camera.

Together, these specifications address several common smartphone uses, including viewing content, listening to audio, taking photographs, and creating material for online sharing.

The HONOR 600S is available in three color options: Velvet Black, Desert Gold, and Misty Purple. The range gives buyers different finishes to choose from when selecting a device.

The 8GB + 256GB HONOR 600S is available for ₱19,999 until October 31, 2026, according to HONOR Philippines. The company also announced purchase-related freebies for eligible customers.

Those who pre-ordered the device can receive a free HONOR Bluetooth Speaker II, while customers who made first-day purchases are eligible for a free HONOR Watch 2i. The offers are subject to the applicable terms and conditions.

For consumers who prefer shopping online, a 6GB + 128GB version is available exclusively through online channels for ₱18,999, with a free HONOR Watch 2i. Customers can also check HONOR’s official stores on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop for online-exclusive offers, which are subject to platform promotions and terms.

These offers accompanied the smartphone’s first-day sale, giving customers several purchasing options depending on their preferred storage configuration and shopping channel.

HONOR Philippines also extended the registration deadline for its HONOR 600S ₱1 Million Shopping Spree Promo to October 18, 2026.

Customers who pre-ordered or purchased the smartphone can register for a chance to win ₱1 million worth of shopping at SM Stores. Participation is subject to the official promotion mechanics, including the applicable eligibility and registration requirements.

The extension gives eligible buyers additional time to complete their registration following their purchase or pre-order.

With the HONOR 600S now available through authorized HONOR stores, partner dealers, and official online channels nationwide, the first-day sale at SM Megamall marked the smartphone’s introduction to Filipino consumers. The simultaneous opening of the HONOR Alpha Store added a retail milestone to the occasion, while Lyca Gairanod’s performance of “Pwede Nang Mangarap” gave the celebration a musical centerpiece.
