The upcoming Mate40 series has been confirmed to be the last Huawei smartphone to feature HiSilicon Kirin chipset for the time being. But the company is still working on a number of products including three smartphones, a foldable, a TWS, and a smartwatch.
The information regarding the existence of these products comes from popular leakster Evan Blass aka @eveleaks on Twitter. Unfortunately, he did not reveal anything but the codenames and they are as listed below.

That’s not all, Ross Young, the founder and lead research of DSSC and DisplaySearch revealed further details about the Mate X2 in a reply to Evan’s tweet.
According to him, the upcoming Huawei foldable smartphone will feature an inward folding display just like Samsung Galaxy Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 2. Also, he mentioned that the Chinese telecom giant will be sourcing panels from Samsung Display and BOE, however, it will lack UTG (Ultra Thin Glass), which is kind of a bummer.
Anyway, if this smartphone ever releases, then it will be the first non-Samsung foldable to come with Samsung Display panel.
