Another HUAWEI Innovation – A Foldable Smartphone with 5G Support
On February 24, HUAWEI presented future technologies to customers at the World Mobile Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Spain. Along with the renewed Mate books, the company presented the very first in world foldable smartphones with 5G modem. The HUAWEI MateX has 5G support and integrates two gadgets: a smartphone and a media pad.
Richard Yu, the CEO of the company, presented the device to the audience and spoke about its capabilities. “In the modern and developed world, customers are always looking for novelties. Through this offer, HUAWEI takes care to secure the interests of the customers and offers them an innovative, developed and leading experience along with 5G.”
The HUAWEI MateX integrates a 5G modem foldable display, artificial intelligence and a brand-new interface. The company offers customers unprecedented technologies and launches a new era in the smartphone industry. The HUAWEI MateX is more than an ordinary smartphone or media pad, as it comprises both. In addition, it is equipped with a more flexible, foldable OLED display and the fastest Balong 500 5G chipset.
The HUAWEI MateX is an ideal multifunctional mobile device, as it perfectly suits customer requirements in various directions, consuming minimum time and offering maximum comfort for a moderate price. Thanks to the multifunctioning capabilities, customers have an opportunity to work on a dual screen to accomplish multiple tasks at the same time.
HUAWEI smartphones are always equipped with strong cameras and the new product is no exception. Thanks to the foldable design, the camera system works as a front and rear camera, which is certainly a revolutionary novelty in smartphone photography. The 4,500mAH hefty battery of the HUAWEI MateX, with the modern technology of fast charging, enables customers to use the smartphone for longer.
HUAWEI has a leading role in the chipset, technology and communication industries; however, the company has a new challenge – to grab the same position in the 5G universe. Taking into account the fact that the HUAWEI MateX is equipped with Balong 500 5G, and a 7 nanometers chipset, the innovative device launched by the company has the potential to become the main measure of the future production of 5G smartphones for other companies.
The price of the HUAWEI MateX starts at $2,600 and it will be on sale from mid-2019. At the first stage, the company plans to produce a limited amount of said smartphones.
