Perhaps the most durable of all flexible smartphones
IFixit experts disassembled the Huawei Mate Xs smartphone, which is equipped with a flexible screen, evaluating its maintainability only 2 points out of 10 possible.
Unprofitable Huawei Mate Xs turned out to be quite durable
The number of foldable smartphones in the market continues to increase. Samsung Galaxy Fold, Galaxy Z Flip, Huawei Mate X and Mate Xs, as well as Motorola RAZR are currently available to users. Also, do not forget about Royole Flexpai, which formally became the first smartphone with a flexible screen.
A video was published on the iFixit website that allows you to evaluate the insides and build quality of Huawei Mate Xs. Such a low rating of the smartphone is explained not by poor build quality, but by the heavy-duty glue that is used to fasten the flexible screen of other smartphone components. Browsers had to try to remove the back panel and batteries.
Observers note that disassembling a smartphone has a lot of difficulties, and just trying to replace the battery, camera or some other component can damage the expensive flexible OLED panel.
At the same time, the review said that the Huawei Mate Xs will receive a hinged block of an improved design, which does not allow dust and dirt to get inside. Overall, the Huawei Mate Xs turned out to be perhaps the most durable of flexible smartphones.
Recall, Huawei is losing tens of millions of dollars by selling the flexible Huawei Mate Xs .
