Watch: Huawei Mate X2 undergoes the bend test [Durability Test]

Mate X2 Durability Test

Huawei Mate X2 foldable smartphone was launched with new hardware and software capabilities over its predecessors. The all-new Mate X2 comes with two display systems, a powerful Kirin processor with 5G support, and more.

The Mate X2 is not available internationally at present – however, that didn’t stop JerryRigEverything host Zach Nelson from importing a unit just to see how destructible the new foldable phablet is. He confirmed that its case, frame, and secondary display are as robust as those of many other flagship devices.

Its main AMOLED display is coated with polyimide rather than ultra-thin glass as in some other foldable (with scratches at a level 2 with deeper grooves at a level 3). Then again, its hinge seemed capable of repelling grit, even if it was poured all over the device and even ground right into it.
