Huawei is women needing sex videolaunching a new foldable phone, the Mate Xs.
Unfortunately, it's not going to matter much for customers in the U.S. and Europe, as it comes without Google apps, making it dead in the water in most markets outside of China.
It's a pity, because it's a fascinating device. It's similar to its predecessor, the Huawei Mate X, which never launched outside of China. It has the same, outwards-folding display that measures 8 or 6.6 inches, depending on whether it's folded or unfolded. The 4,500mAh battery is the same as well, and 5G connectivity is still on board.

Unfortunately, the price has increased as well. The Huawei Mate Xs will cost €2,499 ($2,707) in Europe, which is two hundred euros more than the price of its ill-fated predecessor. This is for the version with 8/512GB of memory; it's unclear whether there will be more than one version of the device.

Android Central, which had time with the device, praises the screen and design, as well as its multitasking features. Engadget calls the Mate Xs a good-looking product, but notes that the lack of software to try out — due to the absence of the Google Play app store — was a big issue.
