We spoke to Huawei directly about the improvements made to the hinge system that facilitates the Mate Xs 2's 'double-rotating Falcon Wing Design' to learn what was being done to give the company's newest handset a better chance at foldable phone supremacy. This key assembly evenly distributes the force applied when the phone is opened or closed, while also protecting the delicate ribbon cables and other components running between the device's two halves. The hinge systems in vertically folding phones like the Z Fold and Mate Xs series are brimming with tens (if not hundreds) of interlocking pieces that work in concert to give the device they're a part of a rigid spine. Standard smartphones may contain a trio of buttons, perhaps an OIS (optical image stabilization) system supporting at least one of their cameras and a haptic motor inside for vibration, but that's about it. Generally speaking, the more moving parts a machine has, the greater the number of potential failure points it suffers from. And thanks to new technical insight from both companies, we can see what's going on behind the scenes to make this newest generation of foldables slimmer, lighter, stronger and more durable. The new Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Huawei's Mate Xs 2 represent two very different solutions to the big-screened foldable form factor (Samsung's features two displays, with the larger folding panel being inward-facing, while the Mate Xs 2 uses a single, larger external panel). The increase in foldable competition at this point in 2022 suggests that much of the technical adversity that those early folding phones faced has already been overcome making the creation of such products more accessible and more worthwhile from a cost standpoint for a wider breadth of phone makers. The international launch of Huawei's intriguing Mate Xs 2 still feels fresh, and the dust has barely settled on the Chinese launch of both Motorola's long-awaited 2022 Razr and Xiaomi's new Mix Fold 2. The timing of their release actually means they arrive sandwiched between other high-profile foldable phones from ambitious rivals. If you have a particular carrier request that isn't listed above please contact us as we may be able to arrange it for an additional fee.If you're reading this around the time of the Samsung's August 2022 Unpacked event, the foldables of the moment are undoubtedly the new Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4. The delivery time varies depending on the courier, but the services we use range from 1-3 days to 8-10 days. Oversized items such as drone backpacks or hard cases are also sent with a courier. We use TNT, UPS or FedEx depending on the destination.īatteries are sent with a tracked courier which usually takes 5-10 days. This is a bit more expensive, but arrives much quicker and is very reliable. However, we have found it to arrive quicker and more reliably than our standard service.įor urgent orders we suggest our 1-3 day tracked courier. Royal Mail International Tracked also has a 3-7 day delivery aim. This is an untracked option and is not available on orders over about £50.
The delivery aim is 3-7 days, however it can take much longer than this, especially for countries outside Europe, Canada or the USA. Our standard service is Royal Mail International Standard.
