Huawei has delisted the Mate X2 from its online store in China, reports ITHome. The company has removed both the original 5G model as well as the 4G variant.

The smartphone is likely discontinued. The firm is yet to make an official statement.

HUAWEI Mate X2

The Huawei Mate X2 is the company’s first-generation inward-folding foldable smartphone. It was announced in February 2021.

Most importantly, it is the company’s last 5G foldable smartphone. It is also the last Huawei foldable with a Kirin chipset and Leica cameras.

Hence, it is sad to witness the discontinuation of this phone. At present, it is not known whether the company will bring it back under its refurbishment program, as it does with other handsets.

The Huawei Mate X2 was the thinnest foldable smartphone when it was released. This title now belongs to the Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. It was also the most feature-rich, especially in terms of cameras. But the Vivo X Fold took over this mantle when it got released, followed by Vivo X Fold+.

The Mate X2 featured an 8-inch 90Hz horizontal inward folding foldable display and a 6.45-inch 90Hz cover screen. It was powered by HiSilcion Kirin 9000 chipset. The original model even had support for 5G.

Either way, both 4G and 5G variants came with Leica-powered cameras. The rear quad-camera setup comprised a 50MP primary snapper with OIS, a 16MP ultra-wide unit with autofocus, a 12MP 3x telephoto shooter with OIS, and an 8MP 10x periscope camera with OIS. The cover display housed a 16MP front-facing camera.

The device was backed by a respectable 4,500mAh battery with support for 55W wired fast charging.
