Embattled Chinese tech giant Huawei recently launched the Mate Xs 2 foldable smartphone as its latest iteration in the premium foldabe lineup. While the Mate Xs 2 was revealed to have support for stylus pen, it didn’t launch with one. Huawei has now announced a new M-Pen 2s Stylus that can be used with the Mate Xs 2. The Huawei M-Pen 2s Stylus carries a decent price tag of 599 yuan (~$89) and is set to go on sale from June 1.

The new Huawei M-Pen 2s stylus is ultra-lightweight, weighing in at about 17g. The stylus pen supports side front tilting drawing, 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity, and can write lines of different thicknesses. It is also equipped with multi-function buttons on the side, with a variety of gesture operations, bringing a more convenient and flexible control experience.

The stylus brings various control shortcuts such as calling up the memo when the pen is tapped on the screen while the screen is off. This same function of opening the memo pad can be initiated under bright screen by pressing and holding the multi-function button and tapping the screen with the pen. To take a full screenshot, users can simply press and hold the multi-function button and then double-tap the screen with the pen. To take a partial screenshot, users can simply press and hold the multi-function button and circle the required portion using the stylus pen. The pen also has a function for taking long screenshots.

The Huawei M-Pen 2s stylus is designed with a unique embedded Type-C connector and has Huawei Flash Connect fast charging technology. A 5-minute charge can last for tw hours of writing while a full charge supports up to 10 hours usage. While on standby, the battery can last for up to 40 days.

The stylus also supports stylus annotation mode, a variety of brushes and colors, rich choices, colorful expressions, and easy annotation. Annotated content is saved with the book, and can be synchronized to Huawei Read Cloud to support viewing on multiple devices.
