HUAWEI's highly-anticipated second-gen folding smartphone has finally been announced today. The HUAWEI Mate X2 sports a different design compared with its predecessor by featuring an inward-folding design rather than outward-folding one. Besides that, the brand has removed the selfie camera from the main display by putting it into an outer display, allowing the users to have a full-view experience. Let's read on to find out more about the HUAWEI Mate X2!
The device features an 8-inch foldable inner OLED display that comes with a 2480 x 2200 pixel resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate at 413 PPI. For the mentioned outer display, it uses a 6.45-inch panel with a 90Hz refresh rate, 2700 x 1160 pixel resolution, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate at 456 PPI. The latest folding smartphone is powered by the in-house Kirin 9000 chipset paired with a 24-core Mali-G78 GPU. It also houses a 4,500mAh battery which supports 55W fast charging.
For photography, the quad-camera setup at the back features a primary 50MP Ultra Vision Camera (Wide Angle, f/1.9 aperture, OIS). It is accompanied by a 16MP Cine Camera (Ultra-Wide Angle, f/2.2 aperture), a 12MP Telephoto Camera (3x Optical Zoom, f/2.4 aperture, OIS), and an 8MP SuperZoom Camera (10x Optical Zoom, f/4.4 aperture, OIS) that supports AF. The features brought by the setup include Story Creator, Tracking Shot, Steady Shot, Audio Zoom, High-res, Time-Lapse, Ultra Wide Angle Lens, and more. On the front, there lies a 16MP selfie shooter.
The Mate X2 will be running EMUI 11.0 based on Android 10 out of the box. It will be available in two storage options - 8GB + 256GB for 17,999 Yuan (~RM11,249 ) and 8GB + 512GB for 18,999 Yuan (~RM11,874 ). For now, it is still unsure when it will make a global debut but we'll keep an eye on that and report it to you as soon as we receive any information.
