Huawei could launch its next foldable smartphone, the Mate X8, on November 24, according to a new report from China. The upcoming device is expected to be thinner and lighter than its predecessors. These include the Mate X5, Mate X6, and Mate X7.
The Mate X8 may retain the color options introduced with the Mate X7. However, Huawei could also introduce a new color described as “bold and bright.” This suggests the company may offer more variety with its latest foldable.
Camera upgrades could be another major highlight. According to the latest rumor, the Mate X8 will support Huawei’s Ruiying Z10 external camera module. It features a 1-inch RYYB sensor and supports 10x continuous optical zoom.
The camera module offers a focal range of 24-240mm and an aperture range of f/2.0 to f/4.5. It was previously introduced with the Mate 90 Pro Max Collector’s Edition. This raises the possibility of a special Mate X8 Collector’s Edition.
Previous leaks have also revealed several expected hardware details. The Mate X8 is reportedly powered by Huawei’s Kirin 9050 and Kirin 9050 Pro chipsets. A variant with a Privacy Display is also said to be in development.
As for the displays, the phone could feature a 6.5-inch cover screen and an 8.15-inch main display. Its rear camera setup may include a 50MP primary sensor with a 1/1.28-inch sensor size and variable aperture. A 50MP periscope telephoto camera is also expected.
The Mate X8 could pack a battery with at least 6,000 mAh capacity. If these details prove accurate, Huawei’s next foldable will bring upgrades across design, cameras, and battery life. Huawei has yet to officially confirm the Mate X8’s launch date or specifications. More details are expected to emerge ahead of its rumored November 24 debut.
