Recently, Huawei has unveiled its latest foldable phone – Mate Xs 2 smartphone featuring Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset with an octa-core architecture featuring Octa-core, 1 x Cortex-X1 at 2.84GHz + 3 x Cortex-A78 at 2.42GHz + 4 x Cortex-A55 at 1.8GHz. The same processor has been used in the Huawei P50 and P50 Pro smartphones.
Why not Kirin:
Due to U.S. restrictions, Huawei cannot print new chipsets including Kirin, the chipset stock is running low. Therefore, the company is bound to take the help of other processor makers such as Qualcomm and MediaTek to complete current requirements and build new products.
Huawei Mate 50 series:
Currently, Huawei has not confirmed the official launch date for this upcoming flagship but previous inputs on this matter brought us to hope that the company is surely working on the device and is likely to unveil around July. According to a previous report, Huawei Mate 50 Pro will bring you better camera technologies and better photography capabilities. That’s not it, the phone could be bringing HarmonyOS 3.0 operating system, with a set of new software features.
Huawei Mate 50 is likely to feature a better display panel but the return of the notch is also speculated, which, you can read in the article linked below.
Huawei Mate 50 series is not going to leave the headlines space so easily. And why not, it is one of the most bashing devices in the history of smartphones. In the latest edition, the news is running regarding the sold-out scenario of Huawei Mate 50 Kunlun Glass variants.
Yes! Huawei Mate 50 series and especially its Kunlun Glass variants are so much popular among consumers that they sold out within seconds. However, every good thing has some negative impact and so has happened with the Mate 50 lineup.
The huge selling of the Mate 50 models brought a shortage in the units. Though the company increased the production capacity of the Mate 50 devices immediately after the sold-out result. Yet, the upcoming number of units was not enough to calm down consumer demand.
Hence, this supply chain will take some time to get back on the original track. According to the Weibo blogger @FactoryDirectorShiGuan, the Chinese tech giant has hyped the production capacity of the Mate 50 series Kunlun variants. But, the supply chain will be improved after mid-October.
On the flip side, the blogger also states that the rush will slow down till November. So, instead of paying a higher price for the Mate 50, users can keep patience till November to grab the device with its actual cost tag.
Huawei Mate 50 Kunlun Glass.
Well, there is no doubt why Mate 50 Kunlun Glass Edition is so favored among users. Consequently, it is one of the strongest glass protectors that secures your device from almost every external drop and damage.
Moreover, these glasses have qualified for the first Swiss SGS five-star drop-resistance certificate. In comparison to the normal screen protectors, these mechanisms use 108 microcrystalline raw materials in their manufacturing.
The Kunlun Display Shields are 10 times tougher than ordinary ones. But at this moment, these elements are a little away from the user’s reach. Don’t worry, just a few days more, and you will have your favorite Mate 50 version in your hands.
