Huawei takes the Galaxy Z Fold 2-approach with the new Mate X2

Huawei entered the foldable smartphone space back in February 2019 with the launch of the Mate X. It was followed by the Mate Xs, which was a small improvement over the original, featuring a better hinge, a more durable screen, and the Kirin 990 SoC. Earlier this month, we learned that Huawei was gearing up to launch a new foldable device called the Mate X2, and now, it’s finally here.
