Huawei Mate X passed certification in China
Just yesterday, the Huawei Mate 20 X 5G passed China’s 3C for certification to operate in the domestic market. Today, the foldable Mate X is getting the same certification. This could mean that the 5G-compatible Mate X could be launching on the same day or just after Huawei decides to launch the Mate 20 X 5G in China.
The Huawei Mate X has a model number of TAH-AN00. Certification info also reveals that it will include a new power adapter. This isn’t the same Super Charge 40W that the Mate 20 X 5G will come with. Based on the output currents in the certification listing, this adapter will output a maximum of 65W (20VDV @ 3.25A).
We see the adapter will also support devices like the Mate 20 Pro and the P30 Pro, both of which support Super Charge 40W. This listing, however, seems to claim that the Mate X will support the fastest charger in a Huawei smartphone. The company had previously revealed the Mate X would support 55W Super Charge so even though the adapter is rated higher, it will be limited by the Mate X’s capacity.
Samsung Galaxy Fold is now delayed indefinitely, but possibly until July, due to design issues. With this, it’s very likely that Huawei will beat Samsung to market as the world’s first commercially available foldable smartphone from a major smartphone manufacturer. The Mate X is believed to hit the Chinese market as soon as this month. This is turning out to be a wild year for smartphones and tech news.
