It is reported that Huawei will launch the second-generation Mate X foldable phone in the second half of next year. Some hinge and panel suppliers have begun mass production of new components.
The company that has been rumored to be a supplier of hinge devices is Jarllytec. In addition to Huawei, it also has a cooperative relationship with another Chinese smartphone manufacturer. However, as the complexity and reliability of the components needed to be further tested, the company did not disclose its capacity plans explicitly.
From a time point of view, the second-generation Mate X may choose to launch with the Mate 40 series. Undoubtedly, they are expected to simultaneously carry the rumored Kirin 1000 series processors and natively support 5G networks.
