Huawei Mate X2 4G 8 GB / 256 GB / China / AL00 technical sheet
The Huawei Mate X2 4G is for anyone seeking a foldable phone with a large inner display; the trade-off is a heavy, thick body. It weighs 295 g and is 14.7 mm thick. The outer display measures 6.45 inches, while the foldable OLED display opens to 8 inches. Its 90 Hz refresh rate is typical of phones of its time, but the display’s 414 ppi density is among the highest. The folding design gives the phone a large surface for reading, viewing content, and work.
Its performance and hardware are better than those of most phones of its time. This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage, more capacity than most, and its AnTuTu v8 result of 688,000 is among the highest. HarmonyOS 2 has no Google Services, a consideration when choosing apps. The camera is among the best of its time: its 1/1.28-inch sensor is among the largest, and the periscope telephoto camera offers 10x optical zoom, also among the highest. The main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is worse than that of most phones of the period.
The 4,500 mAh battery has typical capacity, while 55 W charging power is higher than that of most phones of its time. Overall, its NeoScore is 6.5, better than most. It is a particularly compelling choice for people who prioritize a foldable design, a large display, and a camera system with extensive optical zoom.
