high end foldable smartphone produced by Huawei. It was unveiled at MWC 2019 on 25 February 2019[2] and was originally scheduled to launch in June 2019, but the launch was pushed back to allow for extensive testing in light of the failures reported by users of a similar product, the Galaxy Fold from Samsung.[3][4] The Mate X launched in China only in November 2019.[5][6][7][8] Huawei announced the Mate Xs on 24 February 2020 as a hardware revision of the original Mate X; it was released in "global markets" outside China in March 2020. The device features a more durable display, improved hinge function and a redesigned cooling system, as well as the newer Kirin 990 5G SoC and Android 10 with EMUI 10.[9]
