Chinese celebrate the Lunar New Year for 15 days, namely from the 1st day of the year of the lunar calendar to the 15th day of the calendar. During Lunar New Year, the colour red has always meant propensity and good fortune in Chinese culture. With that in mind, Huawei has launched a very prosperous “Red” leather edition of its Huawei Mate X2 foldable in China in tangent with the Lunar New Year Celebration.

Shared by Weibo user, Yixiu Technology Jun, the official name of the foldable is called the Huawei Mate X2 Lunar New Year Red Limited Edition, and it shares the same hardware such as the processor and the cameras as the normal Huawei Mate X2. The main differentiating factors of this phone are its red vegan leather back design, and its generous 12GB RAM and 1TB storage option.

This new edition of the Huawei Mate X2 was silently launched by Huawei, and as of current, the phone is only available in offline stores in China, priced at 20999 RMB (3305 USD). 

The Huawei Mate X2 comes with a 6.45-inch 90Hz cover OLED display with a pill-shaped cut-out that houses a single 16MP front-facing camera. The foldable display is an 8-inch OLED panel and also has a 90Hz refresh rate.

In the camera department, the phone is equipped with a quad-camera setup that includes a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, a 12-megapixel telephoto sensor, and an 8-megapixel periscope lens.

It is running Huawei’s own EMUI 11 interface based on the HarmonyOS 2.0 operating system. The smartphone is powered by a 4,500mAh battery and comes with support for 55W wired fast charging technology.
