Bafana Bafana stars Ronwen Williams and Themba Zwane graced the launch of the HONOR X7d 5G, alongside Amajita quartet Thabang Mahlangu, Neo Rapoo, Siviwe Magidigidi, and Lazola Maku.

The Amajita players were part of the team that competed in the prestigious FIFA Under-20 World Cup hosted in Chile.

On the other hand, Bafana, sponsored by HONOR, recently celebrated a significant milestone by qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, set to take place in Mexico, Canada, and the United States. They are also headed for the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco this December.

The national team players were joined by Siwelele FC midfielder Vincent Pule at the launch of the brandโ€™s latest innovation.

Also present were participants from the SuperSport MVP Talent Search, each of whom was awarded a new HONOR X7d 5G. This is as part of the brandโ€™s commitment to supporting local talent.
