Description & Specs
The Mate X2 keeps the large screen promise intact, as it sports an 8-incher when opened yet when closed it has a much bigger external display than the Z Fold 2 – a whopping 6.45″ panel with 90Hz refresh rate.
Coming with Huawei’s newest Kirin 9000 5G chipset, the Mate X2 foldable phone is not lacking power for complex tasks like gaming or multirframe photography, or memory with 8GB RAM and 256GB/512GB storage options. The camera, too, seems directly lifted from the excellent one on the P40 Pro, what with the huge 50MP sensor, 16MP ultrawide, and two zoom cams – one 12MP 3x telephoto for closer objects or portraits, and one 8MP with the whopping 10x periscope zoom.
The big 4500mAh battery has been carried over from the Xs, as well as the 55W charging. Other notable Mate X2 features include a high 90Hz refresh rate for both displays, magnetically-controlled nano optical layer to minimise reflection, split screen software features for multitasking, and Director’s View video streaming on one screen.
