Just when you thought that Huawei Mate 20 Launch Event is over, Richard Yu (CEO, Huawei Consumer Business Group) announced “One More Big Thing”. It definitely caught our attention.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And true enough, he took out the another Huawei phone, the HUAWEI Mate20 X. Many were caught by surprises even though there were some leaks before this keynote.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The HUAWEI Mate20 X has a massive 7.2-inch screen and is targeted at mobile gamers and those who love to use their phones for entertainment or productivity purposes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Physical look-wise, it looks like a bigger version of the HUAWEI Mate20. If you dig deeper, you will know that it is a hybrid of the Mate20 Pro and Mate20. You can read all about Mate20 Pro and Mate20 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For example, It has the Dewdrop Display that Mate20 has but is using OLED (instead of LCD).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It has the same camera configuration as the Mate20 Pro but does not have the in-screen fingerprint sensor. It has the usual fingerprint sensor on its back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It does not have the invisible speaker like the Mate20 Pro. It has the standard speaker on the bottom. Based on the presentation, it is 120% louder than the latest iPhone.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the top, it has the 3.5mm jack which is similar to Mate20.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Battery-wise, it has a built-in battery of 5,000mAh.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With that massive battery and Kirin 980 chipset, it is able to last longer than the latest iPhone XS Max when playing games.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Based on the presentation, it is also cooler (literally) to play games on the Mate20 X.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Huawei says that they are able to achieve this with the choice of material and the in-built technology.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is how it looks like in exploded view.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the demo area, Huawei has built a mock-up of the internal cooling system.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is some comparison\u00a0for your reference.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As mentioned earlier, HUAWEI is targeting mobile gamers and Richard Yu is not just saying mobile phone gamer. Check out this accessory, the Gamepad.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It can supposedly transform the Mate20 X into a Nintendo Switch-alike handheld gaming console.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You can also use the additional HUAWEI M-Pen (sold separately) to write on the Mate20 X. It has 4,096 level of pressure. Just a note. There is no way to store the M-Pen into the phone.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Finally, if you are interested, here are the product specs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In summary, the massive HUAWEI Mate20 X is trying to become the best of gaming and productivity. Indirectly, in my opinion, it is challenging its competitors (Apple iPhone XS Max, Samsung Note9, Nintendo Switch) with a phone that can do “everything”.<\/p>\n

There is no data yet on how good the Mate20 X is. We shall wait and see. FYI, the Mate20 X will not be coming to Singapore. It will be available in selected markets only.<\/p>\n
