Obviously we were not there in Barcelona but thanks to Huawei Philippines we were able to see their latest foldable smartphone with 5G for some hands-on
Meet the Huawei Mate Xs. You can see the specs from our previous blog post here
Huawei Mate Xs has the same form factor as to Huawei Mate X but from their global presentation, they promised that it will be a lot sturdier and we felt it. Unfolding it, you need to push that button at the bottom of it's quad camera system. Another difference of it is the EMUI 10 based on Android which brings another world possibilities including new ways to maximize the multi window mode. When folded, you can still have that 6.6 inch cover display which is helpful if you only need to take some photos
Like in flagship Huawei smartphones, they continue to collaborate with Leica. The primary sensor has 40 MP but like in other models, you need to adjust it to 40 MP in the camera settings menu. In default, we managed to still get a 10 MP camera sample with f/1.8 aperture. Pretty good so far.

Huawei Mate Xs official global price is 2499 euros but they never stated yet on it's official release date and availability.
