Description

Considering the product's ridiculously high price tag (€2,499), the Huawei Mate Xs is crammed full of some of the latest mobile technology. Leading the way is the custom Kirin 990 5G with 512GB expandable internal storage and 8GB of RAM. This is combined with the company's outstanding 55W fast charging technology, allowing the 4,500mAh battery to be charged to 85% in just 30 minutes. The Huawei Mate Xs package is completed by a quad-camera setup on the back which houses a 40-megapixel main sensor, an 8-megapixel telephoto shooter, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle alternative, and a Time-of-Flight sensor for accurate portrait photography.
