Huawei sold more than 100,000 Mate Xs in the first month

Huawei said it sold more than 100,000 Mate X folding smartphones in the first month, since it opened in China in late November. Huawei Mate X costs $ 16,999 (about $ 2,400).

Huawei Mate X sales compared to rival Samsung Galaxy Fold still seem to be quite low, although it’s not entirely clear exactly how many Galaxy Folds Samsung has sold. However, before that at CES 2020, Samsung director said that about 400,000 – 500,000 Galaxy Folds have been sold.

It can be said that Huawei and Samsung are the two main competitors in the folding screen smartphone segment, which is still quite new. Although Samsung’s Galaxy Fold had a lot of difficulties launching, it had more successful sales than its rival.

However, Huawei has only sold Mate X in China, and there are no plans to launch it to the world yet. Maybe Mate X will be launched in Europe in Q1 this year. Meanwhile, we will have a more objective view of the confrontation between Mate X and Galaxy Fold.

At this year’s CES 2020 event, it’s possible to see foldable devices from laptops to phones becoming a new trend that is being pursued by manufacturers. So coming, Samsung and Huawei will surely have more formidable competitors.
