Huawei announced a variety of hardware products at the Huawei Flagship Launch Event 2022 highlighted by the Huawei Mate Xs 2- the new flagship foldable phone built on the aesthetics of the previous version with a reduced weight of only 255g and a thickness of only 5.4mm.

The phone uses the same Falcon Wing Design that was used in the first couple of iteration of the phone. Through that design, the movement of the hinge and screen is precisely synchronised via the fixed-length linkage control. For the phone’s screen, the use of Huawei's composite screen to absorb all shock and buffer makes the Huawei Mate Xs 2 ultra-reliable.

The Huawei Mate Xs 2 comes with a 7.8-inch True-Chroma foldable display to deliver high resolution content, Silicon-Based Anode battery for higher density and larger capacity, 66W Huawei SuperCharge that allows a 90% charge within 30 minutes.

The Huawei Mate Xs 2 phone also incorporates  multitasking capabilities with Floating Window and Swipe Gestures to provide a seamless control while operating the multi-window.

Price and availability in the UAE to be announced soon.
