Got one of these bad boys to try out for a few days and I am absolutely loving it, the thing is like a mini laptop or tablet, makes me excited for the future foldables. What is great with this particular design is that you can use it folded as it is a 6.6inch screen so it's a typical Phablet, but then it becomes an 8inch tablet when you unfold it |

how do you feel about the scratch resistance of the screen ?

It is INCREDIBLY worrying Mel, luckily it has a preinstalled screen protector on it, but yeah, you want to be very careful with this thing. That being said the more I use it the less worried I get as I am typically careful with my devices. I remember getting the chance to use the original Mate X for about 15mins only as that was super fragile and required a rep. being with you to even fold or unfold it, the fact that they let me take this Mate Xs home for a few weeks tells me they have strengthened all they needed to and so the Xs can be used more 'normally' Also as you may see in the pics it has a sort of skeletal case on it, much like the MS Surface Duo, this case is stuck on with 3M tape, so the the device is somewhat protected

Not quite a journo but I am part of a local tech forum and some manufacturers allow some of us who have been trusted members of the forum to try out their devices. Same forum where I got the Nokia N8-00 back in 2010 when Nokia was running a competition there.

think MKBHD mentioned the next iteration of Huawei Mate X will be switching designs to something much closer to the Galaxy Fold(s). always thought this device was one wrong pocket away from disaster... it wouldn't mix well with car or door keys, especially while you're moving. |
