In just 30 minutes plugged in, Mate Xs charges 85% of its battery thanks to 55W Super Charge technology.
In terms of camera, Mate Xs continues to offer the same set as last year's model, but with some improvements in the main sensor. We have the 40 MP camera with Super Sensing an f / 1.8, an 8 MP sensor for the telephoto lens with f / 2.4 and OIS, a 16 MP sensor for the 17mm wide-angle lens f / 2.2 and also a ToF camera 3D for the depth of field data.
The foldable smartphone comes with Android 10 on board, but as expected it does not feature Google services, but with Huawei Mobile Services, which is the company's alternative to the problem resulting from the ban of the Chinese manufacturer in the United States.
Price and Release Date
Mate Xs will be sold in different regions of the planet as of March and has a suggested price of € 2,499 (2718 $ indirect conversion) in Europe. Huawei has not confirmed in which countries the device will be offered or what date it needs, but such details are expected to emerge in the coming weeks.Full Specifications |
