Huawei mate X is reported to launch this September after being delayed earlier. The month for the launch of this phone is now confirmed by the company officially.

He also declared that they are testing the devices in the mean time.
5G countries limited:
Where will the Huawei Mate X launch? “Any country that has 5G”, said the president, further confirming that Huawei’s foldable phone is a 5G capable device. This was stressed because the Samsung Galaxy Fold launched with 4G LTE, with a 5G version only spoken of but never really becoming official.
Of course, Peng’s “any country that has 5G” comments comes with a caveat. The Mate X isn’t coming to the US, which is no surprise given the Huawei ban in the US.
Android or HongMeng OS?
Mate X actually run Android, or will we finally see HongMeng OS?
According to Peng, the phone will definitely be running Android. The executive says that because the foldable device was announced in February, well before Huawei’s placement on the U.S. Commerce Department’s Entity List (last month), which is why the phone is not covered by the ban.
