Huawei Mate 20X 5G officially presented

Yesterday, Huawei announced in a press release that the Huawei Mate 20X 5G will also come to Germany. Austria will have to wait a little longer - but there is still no 5G anyway. But the smartphone is there anyway.

The Huawei Mate 20X 5G was introduced some time ago - but not with us. Now it is also coming to Germany. One can also assume that the smartphone will soon make it to Austria. Until then we will deliver the first specs for the new offshoot. Generally it's the same size as that Huawei Mate 20X, which is already available in this country. There is a large 7,21 inch OLED display with a resolution of 2244 x 1080 pixels. Inside, the latest Kirin 980 chip does its job, which is supported by 8 GB of RAM.

Huawei Mate 20X 5G: Otherwise the same, but with a 5G modem

Overall, the 5G variant is exactly the same as the Mate 20X itself, only it has a 5G modem. With this, the 5G network - if available from us - prouse without problems. However, there is still not a single network for mobile phone customers - not in Germany anyway, Austria is there with it 5G network in Linz a little further. Under the best conditions, the smartphone could then download up to 2 GB in just 20 seconds.

To ensure that you don't run out of juice when using 5G, there is a 4.200 mAh battery under the hood. There is also a lettering printed on the back that draws attention to a smartphone with the 5th generation of the mobile network. How you like that is a matter of taste. Personally, I find the size of the smartphone borderline; a Huawei P30 Pro converted into a 5G smartphone would have been more manageable.

Price and availability

At the beginning of July 2019, the Huawei Mate 20X 5G in the color "Emerald Green" will be available in German stores for 999 euros (RRP). There is still no information about availability in Austria. There is also a Huawei M-Pen with 4.096 pressure levels for the smartphone - you can get it for 39,99 euros extra.
