Today, following the schedule, Huawei’s new generation of folding screen Mate X2 was released. The 256GB version is priced at 17,999 yuan ($2784), and the 512GB version is priced at 18,999 yuan ($2939).
The Huawei Mate X2 has four colors of glaze white, bright black, ice crystal blue, and ice crystal powder. It will be available in almost all stores on February 25.
Regarding supply issues that the outside world is worried about, Yu Chengdong said that it will provide sufficient production capacity.
Huawei Mate X2 Hardware
In terms of core specifications, the Huawei Mate X2 features a 5nm process technology Kirin 9000 5G SoC. The phone also has ultra-thin large amplitude dual speakers. Under the hood, it carries a 4500mAh large battery, which supports 55W Huawei super fast charging. It is currently the fastest charging folding screen smartphone.
Huawei Mate X2 Design and Screen(s)
As for design, the Huawei Mate X2 pioneered a dual-wedge integrated design. The first center of gravity offset design creates a new balance with asymmetry.
In addition, the Huawei Mate X2 uses the industry’s unique double-rotating water drop hinge, which not only achieves a seamless folding, but also ensures minimal bending marks, making the unfolded screen smoother.
The 8-inch folding screen has an 8:7.1 golden ratio. The inner screen is 6.45 inches. It’s the industry’s first magnetron nano-optical film with ultra-low screen reflectivity.
The phone has a double-rotating drop hinge. Five years of technical development cleverly realizes seamless micro-mark folding. This hinge uses carbon fiber composite materials, zirconium-based liquid metal and >2100MPa super-strength steel. The strength of the material is higher than that of high-safety car B-pillars.
Huawei Mate X2 Camera
In terms of photography, the Huawei Mate X2 comes with super-sensing Leica four cameras. There is a 50MP super-perceptual main camera, a telephoto camera that uses periscope optical zoom structure it can achieve 10x optical zoom, 20x hybrid zoom and 100x digital zoom). On the front, the phone carries a 16MP ultra-wide-angle camera, which supports 2.5cm ultra-close range focus.
Because of its unique folding design, Huawei Mate X2’s powerful super-sensing Leica quad camera can also be transformed into a front camera.
System
For software, Huawei has worked with 1,000+ member companies of the Software Green Alliance to continuously improve the ecological construction of folding screen smartphones. As a result, now, it provides a complete folding development framework and perfect folding design specifications.
At present, it is already completed Mate X2 TOP 200 Applications 100% of adaptation and 95% TOP 1000 applications adaptation. Rich folding screen applications bring the ultimate big screen experience.
At the press conference, Huawei also announced the latest developments of Harmony OS, which has attracted much attention. Yu Chengdong said: ‘Starting in April this year, Huawei’s flagship phones can be upgraded to Harmony OS one after another, and Huawei Mate X2 will be the first to get the upgrade.’
