Huawei Consumer Business Group has announced that its flagship foldable smartphone, Mate Xs 2, will be available for pre-orders from Huawei’s online platforms in Qatar from July 27.
The price of the phone will be revealed at the Huawei flagship products summer launch event, also taking place Wednesday.
In a press statement Monday, Huawei said the Mate Xs 2 "embodies the company's new explorations in the development of foldable phones. Inheriting Huawei’s classic outward folding design, the Mate Xs 2 leverages its strengths of being ultra-light and ultra-thin, ultra-flat and ultra-reliable, to bring consumers the best experience".
"Through the new-generation Double-rotating Falcon Wing Hinge, Huawei bestowed the Mate Xs 2 with an elegant unibody design, which boasts of a flat and seamless fold. The phone is also equipped with flagship features, including an industry-leading 7.8" True-Chroma Foldable Display and a 50MP True-Chroma Camera System that supports Huawei XD Optics, taking its excellent performance to new heights. Thanks to the new dynamic folding visual effect and the upgraded Smart Multi-Window, the Mate Xs 2 presents an innovative interaction experience," the statement noted
The Huawei Mate Xs 2 comes in two colourways: Black, with a crosshatch leather texture and White, with a natural leather texture.
The Mate Xs 2 features the Huawei-exclusive new-generation Double-rotating Falcon Wing Hinge design. When unfolded, the screen becomes as flat and smooth as a mirror, bringing users a more immersive foldable experience. The hinge of the Mate Xs 2 is exquisitely built with Huawei’s self-developed ultra-light, high strength steel, which exhibits a strong load-bearing capacity. In such a way, the Mate Xs 2 enjoys both a lighter weight and a higher strength.
The Huawei Mate Xs 2 weighs only 255gm, a weight that only a non-foldable phone has previously reached. It also adopts a Composite Screen, which shares a design similar to anti-collision systems in cars, making it an excellent shock absorber and buffer.
Huawei continues to invest in innovation and development, using its solid technology to form the exclusive Huawei Image for its consumers. The True-Chroma Camera System of the Mate Xs 2 includes a 50MP True-Chroma Camera for capturing true-to-life colours. The improved Huawei XD Optics brings brand-new information recovery technology to further elevate image clarity, helping restore image details in a way that breaks the boundaries of physics.
An immersive large screen brings a new interactive experience with higher efficiency. In terms of software ecology and user experience, the Mate Xs 2 continues to innovate and breakthrough, bringing users more valuable experiences. It adopts the brand-new dynamic folding visual effect. When unfolded, the desktop screen will automatically expand and, when folded, the screen remains clear and smooth.
The Mate Xs 2 is packed with a 4600mAh battery and supports the distributed 66W 2 Huawei SuperCharge, improving standby battery life for users.
To enhance the audio-visual entertainment experience, the Mate Xs 2 is equipped with ultra-thin and large-amplitude stereo sounds, which create a surround sound field and bring consumers an immersive audio experience alongside the new AI Sound Engine.
The Mate Xs 2 adopts the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 flagship series chip, which is manufactured using advanced process technology, bringing powerful performance and extraordinary experience to foldable smartphones.
Huawei’s foldable flagship comes pre-installed with Huawei Mobile Services (HMS), which include Petal One and a variety of useful and premium services such as Petal Search, Petal Maps, Huawei Video, Huawei Browser, GameCenter and more.
