(Pocket-lint) – Huawei’s Mate X2 is a new generation foldable from the company that turns the older Mate X on its head – or rather, inside out. 

Whereas the Mate X (and revised Xs version) had the foldable display on the outside, the Mate X2 folds its 8-inch, 2,480 x 2,200 pixel display (413ppi, 8:7.1 aspect ratio) inwards (like Samsung’s Galaxy Fold series) but also has a full-size 6.45-inch OLED 21:9 display plus dual cut-out cameras on the ‘front’ of the phone when it is folded. 

That means it can act more like a standard smartphone when closed up than other foldables we’ve previously seen that compromise on their front displays.

Each half of the display is a wedge shape, meaning the two halves fold together with a ‘multi-dimensional hinge design’. A ‘nano optical layer minimises reflections. 

The phone is a 5G model as you’d expect, built on top of Huawei’s own 5nm Kirin 9000 plaform. There’s a 2,100 mAh battery. 

One very interesting detail is that the Mate X2 can have Huawei’s own Harmony OS installed instead of the company’s usual EMUI interface running on top of Android. 

More to follow.
