Huawei has shared the first official images of its upcoming Mate X8 foldable smartphone, showing the device from both sides and in both folded and unfolded positions. The design appeared in a video marking the eighth anniversary of the Mate X series, but Huawei did not provide any details about specifications, pricing, or a launch date.<\/strong><\/p>\n The video confirms the Mate X8\u2019s basic design. Like earlier Mate X models, it folds inward, so the main display is inside when the phone is closed. The back has a large circular camera module, keeping the design style of other Mate-series phones. Overall, it looks similar to the current Mate X7.<\/p>\n Huawei has not released any specifications yet, but unofficial reports say the Mate X8 might have a 6.5-inch external screen and an 8.15-inch internal display. This would be a small increase from the Mate X7\u2019s 8-inch inner screen. The inner display is also rumored to use an ultra-thin glass (UTG) cover.<\/p>\n The Mate X8 is expected to use Huawei\u2019s Kirin 9050 Pro processor, which is also in the Mate 90 Pro Max and Mate 90 RS flagship phones. This chip uses the company\u2019s LogicFolding 3D architecture. For comparison, the Mate X7 has the Kirin 9030 Pro, so the new model could offer better performance.<\/p>\n Leaks suggest there will be two versions: a standard model and a Collector\u2019s Edition. The standard version may have 12 GB of RAM and either 256 GB or 512 GB of storage. The Collector\u2019s Edition could offer 16 GB of RAM and either 512 GB or 1 TB of storage.<\/p>\n There are also rumors of five color options: Danxia Orange, Qingshan Brocade, Xueyu White, Cangqiong Black, and Zijin. These finishes are said to be planned for both versions, but Huawei has not confirmed the names or availability.<\/p>\n Huawei has not yet announced the launch date or price for the Mate X8 foldable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
