Huawei MATE X, is presented right now live from Barcelona, the Huawei company organizing a special conference to detail the news of its first foldable phone, which also has integrated 5G. Before the Huawei MATE X was officially revealed, the first images of the new smartphone appeared on the Internet, and it looks extremely interesting, even superior to the Samsung GALAXY FOLD from certain points of view, which gives it an advantage.
Huawei MATE X, it also has very impressive specifications for a foldable smartphone, even surprisingly good compared to those of the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, and this is a very big surprise. The Huawei MATE X is a great phone, but the embarrassing presentation made by Richard Yu, who struggles to squeeze a few words about the products into English, shows how little emphasis is still placed on the customer experience.
The Huawei MATE X screen amazes, along with an unexpectedly good design
According to the first specifications for the Huawei MATE X, the phone will have a screen with a diagonal of 8 inches, 0.7 inches larger than that of the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, and this makes it easier to use. Considering that it has a larger diagonal, Huawei MATE X is easier to hold when it is folded, and when it is open, it has a larger surface on which to display images, which makes it more attractive for customers.
When folded, the Huawei MATE X will have two asymmetric parts, one with a 6.6-inch diagonal screen, and another with a 6.2-inch diagonal screen, the first images confirming that the larger screen will be used for regular use. A very big difference compared to Samsung's foldable phone lies in the fact that the Huawei MATE X folds outwards, allowing one of the parts to be used for regular use, like any other smartphone.
Huawei MATE X, also has another very big advantage in that it does not have any cutout in the front panel, but has a much cleaner design, making it much more attractive than the Korean phone. Moreover, including the back of the Huawei MATE X can be used as needed by users, including to take selfies, which is also offered by Oppo with the latest models of phones, even if they are not foldable .

Huawei MATE X has what is called FullView Display, which is based on OLED technology, and offers a resolution of 2480 x 2200 pixels for use when it is open, with an aspect ratio of 8:7.1. When it is folded, it has a resolution of 2480 x 1148 for the 6.6-inch screen, with a slightly lower aspect ratio, but the total diagonal is larger even than that of the iPhone XS Max, or the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, when it is folded, the Huawei MATE X being far superior.
Huawei MATE X comes with top specifications
Huawei MATE X specifications, revealed on the day of the presentation are the following:
- Screen: foldable, AMOLED, with a diagonal of 8 inches, which is divided into two pieces, which have diagonals of 6.6 inches and 6.2 inches;
- processor: Kirin 980 octa-core;
- The main room: quad, with one standard image sensor, one monochrome, one telephoto up to 10X, and one wide-angle;
- Selfie camera: dual;
- Battery: of 4500 mAh;
- connectivity: 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth.
Huawei MATE X comes with specifications that surpass, from almost every point of view, the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, the Koreans clearly having serious problems, especially if we see a lower price from the Chinese. The Huawei MATE X has a bigger screen than the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, the same number of cameras, but better, a bigger battery, plus 5G connectivity, not to mention the design, which is clearly superior.
Huawei MATE X does not come with a fingerprint reader integrated into the screen, but with one integrated into the Power button, which is mounted on the side of the screen, as we have seen on other phone models. Huawei MATE X also has a special hinge in a mechanism called mechanism Falcon Wing, and the phone seems to be thinner than the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, without having any free space between the two edges of the screen, when folded.
Huawei MATE X is only 5.4mm thick when open, being even thinner than an ipad Pro tablet, and when folded it is only 11mm thick, compared to the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, which is 17mm thick. What Huawei has achieved with this Huawei MATE X is absolutely remarkable, it manages to exceed without a right of appeal everything that Samsung has created for its first foldable phone.
Huawei MATE X also has integrated 5G connectivity, with theoretical speeds of up to 4.6 Gbps, thanks to the new Balong 5000 modem, which the Chinese company integrated into the phone.
As a first in the smartphone industry, Huawei MATE X has implemented a fast charging system at 55W, a huge jump from 40W, offered exclusively by Huawei MATE 20 Pro, the Chinese being impossible to reach by competitors. Huawei MATE X can have 85% of the battery in just 30 minutes, the Chinese comparing it with the iPhone XS, compared to which they say that charging is 600% faster, lying, of course, because the iPhone XS charges up to half in 30 of minutes.
The quad camera in Huawei P30 PRO comes in MATE X
Huawei MATE X has a new quad camera with Leica lenses, it is also used for selfies, the secondary screen showing people what image the user is recording using the phone's camera. Details about the new Huawei MATE X camera have not been revealed by the Chinese company yet, most likely because it is identical to the one in the Huawei P30 Pro, which will only be presented on March 26.
How much does Huawei MATE X cost?
The price of the Huawei MATE X will be 2299 euros in the version with 8 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage space, that is, it will be 300 euros more expensive than the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, having less RAM, but even so, it will definitely allow you bought.
When will the Huawei MATE X be released?
The release of the Huawei MATE X is announced for the summer of this year, maybe even June, so after the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, but that doesn't even matter, because everything that was presented today makes the Korean phone forgotten.
