Huawei recently started selling its first foldable smartphone Huawei Mate X after delaying the launch by a few months to make sure the device is durable. The company will also be launching an upgraded Mate Xs in the coming months and later the second-generation Mate X2 is expected to get launched.
Now, a video of the Huawei Mate X smartphone has surfaced online which shows the device with a broken screen. However, it is not yet known what happened to the smartphone or whether it was due to user’s fault or some issues with the device.
As said, we have not idea what has happened to this broken unit of the Huawei Mate X foldable smartphone. The phone could have fallen down or maybe exposed to a sharp object and these are just assumptions as we have no idea what has caused this.
Given that we have not heard or come across reports related to the display issue on the Huawei Mate X smartphone, it seems likely that the unit shown in the video has its display broken because of the user’s fault and the device.

However, the smartphone could be blamed for the design as the outward folding design has a major drawback that the screen is exposed all the time. So there’s a significant risk if the phone drops from your hand.
Earlier, Samsung had to postpone the launch of its first foldable smartphone — Samsung Galaxy Fold after the review units started experiencing issues with the display and many criticised the build quality. Eventually, the company postponed the launch of Galaxy Fold and made changes to the phone’s design before it started selling them in the market.
