Last Updated on June 15, 2019 by Abhishek Jariwala Leave a Comment

Huawei announced its Mate X foldable smartphone few days after the Samsung Galaxy Fold was announced. This happened way back at the MWC 2019 and there is no word from Huawei since then. However, Samsung did release the launch date of its Galaxy Fold. Also, the company sent out review units to a bunch of journalists in the US.

But that move from Samsung did not go as per plan at all. We know that the Galaxy Fold failed miserably and there were serious flaws in its design. This made Samsung call back the Galaxy Fold units from reviewers and delayed its launch. Now, reports are coming in that Huawei has also delayed its Mate X foldable smartphone launch.
