On December 12, Huawei unveiled the latest generation of their Mate series foldables, the HUAWEI Mate X6 - an all-rounded and advanced smartphone that brings significant upgrades to display, camera, durability, user experience, and more. With this release, HUAWEI Mate X6 takes foldable innovation to new heights, setting a new benchmark in the industry. 

Richard Yu, Chairman of Huawei Consumer Business Group, called the HUAWEI Mate X6 "a breakthrough technology from the inside out, bringing consumers a fully innovative foldable screen experience."

Universe-inspired design

The concept of the universe factor is frequently incorporated into the design of the HUAWEI Mate X series. In the case of the HUAWEI Mate X6, the Space-Age Orbit around the camera layout is inspired by planetary orbits, symbolizing the infinite possibilities of the future. 

The HUAWEI Mate X6 is equipped with a 6.45-inch OLED external screen with a resolution of 2440×1080 and a 7.93-inch 2440×2240 ultra-high-resolution OLED internal screen. With HUAWEI X-TrueTM Display technology, users can enjoy an extraordinary and immersive viewing experience.

Additionally, the HUAWEI Mate X6 will be available in three colors: Nebula Gray, Nebula Red, and Black, as well as a range of accessories, including a protective case featuring a rotatable stand. The Nebula Gray is named after its nebula texture, which is smooth to the touch and crafted using Micro-Nano 3D Topography with an innovative material called Vegan Fiber. Its ultra-reflective optical coating produces a radiant glow.

Ultra-reliable

An innovative distributed architecture marks a huge leap in the HUAWEI Mate X6's network performance, cooling, and durability. 

To enhance signal capabilities, the HUAWEI Mate X6 creatively adopts distributed RF units, increasing the overall signal strength by 60 percent¹. 

The HUAWEI Mate X6 enhanced its durability with Kunlun Glass 2nd Generation for the exterior screen, a carbon fiber inner screen plate, an advanced multi-dimensional hinge, and an aviation-grade aluminum middle frame.

The innovative materials, such as ultra-high thermal conductivity graphene and heat source separation, allow the HUAWEI Mate X6 to have efficient cooling, with the heat dissipation area increased by 30 percent². The HUAWEI Mate X6 can guarantee a good performance for a variety of scenarios, including playing mobile games and making video calls simultaneously.

Breakthrough Foldable Photography

The HUAWEI Mate X6 introduces the Ultra Aperture XMAGE Camera system, which has been granted the TÜV Color Accuracy and Stability Certificate, setting a new standard in the foldable smartphone market.

The new Ultra Chroma Camera with 1.50 million spectral channels enables the HUAWEI Mate X6 to capture colors with color accuracy improved by 120 percent³ .

The incredible camera system also features a 50 MP Ultra Aperture Camera that supports a 10-size physical aperture, a 40 MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 48 MP telephoto micro camera with 4X optical zoom and a 5cm super macro mode.

The Moving Picture feature allows users to add fun effects to their photos, including multiple exposures and long exposure.

Leading immersive large-screen experience

The HUAWEI Mate X6 introduces Live Multi-task⁴, a new way to multitask efficiently. With this feature, users can run three applications simultaneously with the screen unfolded to achieve an expanded view.  

Additionally, brand-new lock screen themes like Emoji Crush and Air Hoop bring users more entertainment every time they light up the phone.
