Huawei Mate Xs | Hands-on Review | Galaxy Fold Killer?

The new Huawei Mate Xs is the Chinese giant's second foldable phone, and here's my full hands-on review. A few things have changed for the 2020 Huawei Mate Xs compared with the original X model, including 5G support and a power boost, while some of the specs remain the same. So can this 8-inch bendy beast stand tall versus the Samsung Galaxy Fold? First up, yes, this tablet-slash-phone doesn't come packing Google Services. So you're stuck with the Huawei App Gallery and third party stores. If you can live with that, there's a lot to love here, from the high-performance Kirin 990 5G platform to the gorgeous OLED screen. In its unfolded glory, the Mate Xs sports a 8-inch display which is ideal for multi-tasking with apps. However, you'll want to fold it up to enjoy movies and slip the phone back in your pocket. Android 10 is on board, offering the latest features like a proper dark mode. I also already like the triple-lens camera (plus ToF sensor), which can be used to capture sharp photos, 4K video and beautiful selfies. Not to mention the 3x optical zoom. My full review of the Huawei Mate Xs will be coming soon, so stay tuned to see how it handles PubG Mobile and everyday life.
