Design

Unlike the Mate X and Mate Xs, the Mate X2 has dual displays: a foldable 8 inch display that is concealed when folded, and a smaller 6.45 inch display on the outside. The display format is very similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, which was released the previous year.^[5] The quad-camera array is situated on the back, opposite the second screen, and a selfie camera is present in a cutout in the upper left-hand corner of that smaller display. Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 2, the Mate X2 lacks a camera on the side of the main screen. The device comes in four colors, Black, White, Light Blue, and Rose Gold.^[2]
