The information is according to Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business, which got revealed while
interacting with the French press Frandroid at the company’s headquarters in China.
The Mate Xs is a successor to the company’s first foldable phone, the $2,400 Mate X, and it will have a better hinge,
a tougher screen and Huawei’s new Kirin 990 5G chipset.
The Mate X is on sale only in Huawei’s home market of China due to the company’s troubles with the U.S which
rendered all Huawei’s phone useless outside China. The device was a very promising one with sleek designs,
powerful specs and a very beautiful display.
