At the beginning of this year, Huawei released the second generation of folding screen flagship phone - Huawei Mate X2. It shows consumers that even a folding screen phone can have an excellent and flat inner screen. This has raised consumers' expectations for folding screen mobile phones.
Not long ago, the Huawei Mate X2 collector's edition came, and what is the difference between the Huawei Mate X2 that was named the collector's edition and the ordinary version we saw before? Let's take a look.
Exterior design: You can always believe that huawei flagship has a sense of luxury
When it comes to domestic high-end flagships, I believe that Huawei is the brand that appears the most times in everyone's mind, and there is no one. In fact, it is not completely unreasonable, so many years have passed. In the domestic camp, only Huawei can stand firm in the high-end market, and there are many consumers who buy it.
Here in addition to Huawei's early cooperation with Leica on the P series to improve its own brand tone, more importantly, Huawei is indeed very good at the presentation of texture in building its own high-end flagship. The same is true of today's protagonist Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition. The main difference with the basic model is the back cover of the mobile phone, Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition of the three colors are all using plain leather as the back plate material, a total of black and white red three classic plain leather color matching.
And what I'm holding in my hand is a brocade white color. Unlike pure white, this brocade white color scheme has a certain gray level, and in order to show the product positioning of the high-end flagship, the border of the mobile phone is unsurprisingly using a metal bright middle frame.
Coupled with the frosted texture of the plain leather back cover, Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition presents a low-key and restrained sense of luxury. The weight of 295g makes the mobile phone have a lot of weight no matter which form it is held in, and then add a few calm temperaments.
The body design of Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition is consistent with the basic model, and visually the whole machine adopts a more square design language. However, due to the micro-arc design of the middle frame and the back cover, it can also be regarded as a good balance between the tough temperament and the good grip. The inner screen adopts an 8-inch foldable OLED flexible screen with a resolution of 2480*2200; the outer screen is a 6.45-inch flexible OLED with a resolution of 2700*1160. On the plain leather version of Huawei's Mate X2 collector's edition, the screen uses nano-glass-ceramic, which has been greatly improved in durability and drop resistance.
In terms of design, Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition inherits the high-end texture of Huawei's high-end flagship, after all, for a folding screen mobile phone, the evaluation of its feel is often more than one side, but to see the expansion and closure of the two forms. So now let's take a look at the folding structure of the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition.
Eagle Wing Folding: Unfolds to see the world, closes to strategize
When Huawei Mate X2 was just released, everyone was amazed at its amazing flat inner screen, and it was not simple to know that at that time or the beginning of the year, Huawei could launch such a mature folding screen solution.
The magic lies in Huawei's imaginative twin-wedge-shaped integrated design and the industry's unique double-spin water drop hinge. Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition creates a teardrop-like space at the bend, allowing the inner screen to have a hiding place at the bend.
This has two advantages, the first is to solve the problem of the gap in the fuselage in the closed state. The second and most important benefit is that it minimizes the crease of the screen bend, and it can keep the screen flat for a long time.
Having said so much hardcore technology, what is the actual folding experience of Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition? We look straight into the inner screen creases that consumers care about most.
In the case of the phone fully unfolded, the flatness of the inner screen is really quite high. In order to allow consumers to more intuitively see the degree of crease on the inner screen, we took the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition and a straight mobile phone to wipe the screen clean, and then obliquely reflected the downlight.
It can be seen that the flat screen surface of the straight board machine can complete the reflection of the downlight to the screen, and the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition still has some creases although it does not achieve the perfect mirror reflection of the straight board machine.
However, it can be seen that with the blessing of double-spin water drop hinge technology, the inner screen of Huawei's Mate X2 collector's edition has been quite excellent. Even by the end of 2021, its performance is undoubtedly in the first echelon of the current folding screen mobile phone.
Office & Play: Work and life can be combined
As the core source of Huawei's Mate X2 Collector's Edition, the performance of the Kirin 9000 mobile processor is so good that I believe that Huawei's previous flagships have seen its power. Basically, whether it is a light daily or heavy use by users, kirin 9000 has a very good performance and has a fairly good power consumption control.
Just as the so-called good horse with a good saddle, excellent hardware configuration of course to be paired with good large-screen optimization and system optimization, soft and hard to enjoy the best folding screen mobile phone experience. Mate X2 equipped with HarmonyOS 2, in addition to having a new UI design language in terms of vision, allows users to have a new visual experience. This time, HarmonyOS 2 also made targeted optimizations for the Mate X2's 8-inch inner screen.
Taking navigation as an example, I believe that most business people have complained about the small field of view of the straight phone when driving and navigating. With the Huawei Mate X2, an 8-inch large screen, users can clearly know how their route has gone in front of several intersections. Also thanks to the in-depth cooperation with Baidu and AutoNavi, Huawei Mate X2 has also realized the industry's first folding large-screen sub-meter-level lane navigation, making Huawei Mate X2 users travel more safely.
As business people, it is also one of their daily routines to understand the market on their mobile phones and trade. Mate X2, together with Flush Stock Market, has optimized a more comprehensive stock information display for the inner screen, which greatly improves the efficiency of financial investment.
In addition to the above, Mate X2 has cooperated with apps such as Chedi, Anjuke, Migu Video, and Youku. Adapted to the inner screen, with the ultra-thin and large-amplitude dual speakers of the Mate X2 Collector's Edition. Whether users browse through information, read articles, or watch movies, they can make for a more immersive experience.
HarmonyOS has also done a lot of large-screen optimization for Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition, smart multi-window, one-screen multi-purpose and other functions to add more practical gesture operations, thereby maximizing user efficiency, and the operation is often very intuitive.
Smart split screen

Freely resize the app position
Users can easily and quickly get started with operations such as split screen, multi-application simultaneous opening, video suspension, etc., so that it is more convenient for users to modify documents while viewing data. The inner screen of Huawei's Mate X2 Collector's Edition can also complete these split-screen operations very well.
Of course, in order to allow users to use the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition with confidence and comfort in one day, the phone is equipped with a large battery of 4500mAh, and it supports up to 55W Huawei super fast charging. It can fully meet the user's work and life endurance needs, so that both can be achieved.
Image: Super-perception Leica four-camera, flagship level imaging capabilities
Since the indicators have achieved the flagship level in all aspects, it must also be given a good full for Huawei's traditional technical images. The 50MP Super Perception Main Camera, 16MP Ultra Wide Angle Camera, 12MP Telephoto Lens and an 8MP Super Zoom make up the Mate X2 Collector's Edition of Leica Quad Camera.
Considering that the Mate X2 Collector's Edition as a folding screen mobile phone also considers the thickness of the fuselage, the camera module of this configuration is already very luxurious.
Of course, I am more concerned about its actual sample performance, then we will not talk about nonsense, from the sample to feel the charm of Huawei Mate X2 classic version of Leica four cameras.
You can see that as I mentioned earlier, imaging is a traditional technique of Huawei's flagship. The real-life sample of the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition shows Huawei's achievements in imaging. The 50-megapixel super-perception main camera makes the Mate X2's sample imaging very solid, and the detail performance is quite excellent. The exposure is normal, the white balance is in line with what the naked eye can see, the contrast is high, and the whole photo looks very transparent.
Here I have to mention the 12-megapixel telephoto lens of the Huawei Mate X2, although I myself do not use the telephoto lens to take pictures many times. But I know that there are actually many users who use telephoto quite a lot. The photographic quality of telephoto lenses is very important to them. The photos taken under the Mate X2 telephoto lens also have good detail performance, and even in the case of sufficient light, the sample usability of the telephoto lens is quite high.
In terms of color performance, Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition will be more vivid than reality in terms of color rendering, which is what we commonly call more pleasing eyeballs. Users with different color styles will have different views, but for users who like to press the shutter to get a circle of friends that can be shared and do not want to spend too much time on the post-retouching, the more pleasing color grading style of the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition may be what they prefer.
Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition proves to us with excellent sample performance that even if it is a folding screen mobile phone, its performance on the image is not living up to the aura of Huawei's flagship. It is also the inherent pride of images, and users can also boldly use the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition to record their lives, because it can meet the image creation you want.
Summary: A representative of high-end commerce on the folding screen? None other than the Huawei MateX2 Collector's Edition
In the final summary part, although Huawei Mate X2 has been on the market for almost a year, there are also some brands of folding screen mobile phones launched during this time. But then pick up the Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition, its flat inner screen and very textured design, I think are quite capable of playing, and it is also a non-negligible existence today.
Even in the attributes of high-end business, I even think that the Huawei Mate X2 collector's edition is the best existence in the current folding screen mobile phone. If you tell me that you are not short of money, you just want to have a folding screen mobile phone with explosive business attributes, how to choose? Huawei Mate X2 Collector's Edition is the perfect choice.
