Yesterday we received the first information about Huawei’s next foldable – the Mate X2 – and now there’s another leak, and a juicy one too. The teaser image, posted yesterday on Weibo, suggested that the device will have a foldable screen inside, unlike its predecessors. According to a leak at Weibo’s Digital Chat Station, Mate X2 will not only have a foldable screen inside, but will also mimic the design of the Galaxy Z Fold with a secondary screen in the front. There is a camera cutout on the front screen housing two selfie cameras (both sporting 16 + MP sensors, according to the leak). Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold, however, the Mate X2 has no cutouts or notches on its main screen. The folding screen sports a uniform frame around it and looks pretty cool, to be honest. Judging by the absence of any crease in the middle of the main screen, it is safe to assume that we are talking about a CGI rendering here.
But wait, there’s more! According to the leak, the Mate X2 is quite thin and light compared to other foldable devices (probably the previous generation Mate or Galaxy Fold phones). There are no exact numbers here or any additional information, so it is very difficult to make assumptions based solely on the images.
However, it seems that Huawei is committed to moving forward despite all the problems the company faced last year. Recently, Huawei was prevented from receiving high-end chips from TSMC, and this was the last chance Trump gave the Chinese company before leaving the White House.
