Huawei has launched a novel folding earphone , the Mate X6 , and it looks great , but aboard it has issue forth a “ normal ” sound scream the Nova 13 that ’s actually more interesting . What could perchance be more interesting than a foldable ? I ’ll explain , but Army of the Righteous start with the Mate X6 , which still has some surprises within .

Huawei Mate X6

Huawei get two different types of fold phone ( three if you count thetrifold Mate XT ) , and the Mate X6 is the latest in its book - style range , place it in competition with theSamsung Galaxy zed Fold 6 , theOnePlus Open , and theHonor Magic V3 . It ’s almost as slight as Honor ’s foldable at just 9.85 millimeter thick when close down up . And at only 239 grams , it matches the Galaxy Z Fold 6 ’s weight too . When candid , it has a 7.93 - column inch screen with a 2440 x 2240 pixel solvent and a 1Hz to 120Hz refresh rate , a feature repeated on the outer 6.45 - inch cover cover . There ’s a choice of colors and finish . The Nebula Red and black models have a vegan leather behind natural covering , while the Nebula Gray modelling has an unusual fibre covert with a unique three-D texture .

Huawei has used a inviolable aluminum frame , a carbon vulcanized fiber denture inside the physical structure , a fluid brand urine drop flexible joint , and new 2d - genesis Kunlun glass to increase the Mate X6 ’s durability . The phone also has an IPX8 water resistance evaluation . Engineers have reconstructed the inner architecture to add together more antennas to improve reception , allow for a larger 5110mAh battery , and to use a graphene stratum for hotness looseness .

The television camera is telling for a fold speech sound . Huawei ’s sample - and - tested10 - stop mechanical aperture — going from f/1.4 to f/4.0 — is pair to the 50 - megapixel main tv camera , something we ’ve not seen on a folding before . It ’s joined by a 40MP full - angle photographic camera and a 48MP telephotograph television camera for 4x ocular soar picture . The telephoto camera is used for macro shots at a distance of five centimeters .

What Huawei is n’t saying is what processor is used or what software will be installed on the global Mate X6 . Little is said about them on the brand ’s Chinese site , where the speech sound was announced sooner in the year , aside from Huawei ’s own HarmonyOS 4.3 being installed and the pick of 12 GB or 16 GB RAM , or 256 GB , 512 GB , or 1 TB of store .

Huawei Nova 13 and Nova 13 Pro

The Mate X6 bet groovy , so what ’s special about the Nova 13 ? The Nova 13 Pro specifically has a front camera unlike any we ’ve seen . There are two front camera , a 60MP briny and an 8MP cheeseparing - up portrayal photographic camera with a 2x optical zoom and a 5x digital zoom . We ’re used to seeing these specs on rear camera rather than the front , stool the Nova 13 Pro a superb option for live streaming and selfies .

On the back , the speech sound has a similar main television camera to the Mate X6 . The 50MP photographic camera also has an adjustable aperture from f/1.4 to f/4.0 , along with optical image stabilisation ( OIS ) and a telephotograph photographic camera for 3x optical zoom shots . Huawei ’s Nova series have traditionally been life-style - orientated midrange gadget , but the photographic camera specs for the Nova 13 Pro put it up against the trade name ’s top Pura photographic camera sound .

The sleep of the specifications let in a 6.76 - column inch screen with a 120Hz refresh rate , a 5,000mAh battery with 100 - watt pumped-up charging , and EMUI 14.2 software . Again , Huawei does n’t talk about the central processing unit . There are several color useable , include Loden Green , snowy , and black .
