Huawei Mate X was the first foldable smartphone from the company which was launched in February 2019. Later, the brand unveiled the Mate XS (second foldable device) in 2020 with some upgrades and now, Huawei is all set to launch its third foldable phone. The Huawei Mate X2 has been a part of the rumor mill for quite some time and today, the company announced the launch date on Weibo.

Huawei has confirmed that the next-gen Mate X2 foldable smartphone will be launched on February 22. The image posted by the company gives us a glimpse of the foldable screen. Unlike the Huawei Mate X that debuted with an out-folding design, the Huawei Mate X2 appears to have an inward-folding design — similar to the Samsung Galaxy Fold and the Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G. Huawei is said to use a new hinge to enable inward folding. The display of the Mate X2 also appears to have thinner bezels than the Mate X and the Mate Xs.
Unfortunately, Huawei hasn't revealed any details about the specifications of the Huawei Mate X2. However, last month, a tipster said that the Huawei Mate X2 would come with an 8.01-inch inward-folding primary display and a 120Hz refresh rate, along with a secondary 6.45-inch display. The phone is also expected to have Huawei's HiSilicon Kirin 9000 Chipset and a 4,400mAh battery with 66W fast charging.
