Riyadh, Saudi Arabia : 5G connectivity is the next step in smartphone industry. We witness how the main smartphone manufacturers have been focusing on launching their own 5G devices, meanwhile Huawei has successfully launched its first commercially available 5G smartphone - the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) as the first smartphone supporting 5G launched in Saudi Arabia market. But how does Huawei’s 5G smartphone provide users with a unique experience? Known for its innovation customer-centric solutions, powerful chipsets and a combination of first-of-its kind hardware, the new HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) can do what other 5G smartphones can’t, making it the true 5G pioneer.
The world’s first [1] 5G smartphone with both NSA and SA network support
The growth of 5G networks today have led to the development of two network architectures, Non-Standalone (NSA) and Standalone (SA) 5G networks. Simply put, the NSA networks use existing 4G infrastructure, while a transition to SA networks, the true 5G solution, is soon coming. SA networks do have the added advantage of being simplified and more efficient than its NSA counterpart, however, they key is to ensure that users are not affected by this transition.
This is where the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) shines, thanks to its unique feature to support both SA and NSA networks. The first 5G smartphone in the world [1] to house such a feature, the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) ensures users that their devices will work in regions of both NSA and SA networks as well as the different stages of 5G network development.
The key element for this feature is the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G)’s unique dual chipset setup. First, the Balong 5000, the world’s first [1] 7nm 5G multi-mode chipset that can connect to a wide range of network protocols including 4G, 3G and 2G. Supporting this is the Kirin 980, Huawei’s 7nm top-of-the-line SoC and fastest chipset yet. These two chipsets work hand in hand to provide users with Ultra-fast downlink speeds and download rates up to 4.6 Gbps[2] creating a 5G experience like no other.
The world’s first 5G smartphone with Dual-SIM features
While other smartphone manufacturers will have you give up Dual-SIM features in their 5G devices, Huawei has ensured that its users need not worry. The HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) is the world’s first [1] 5G smartphone that can provide users with support for Dual-SIM features (5G SIM + 4G SIM), allowing users to stay connected to their 5G networks while travelling or access roaming services with ease.
Powerful hardware to run it all
Running 5G powered hardware is no easy task and can lead to the phone battery being drained or even overheating. A price to be paid even in most premium smartphones, Huawei has tackled both these issues in its HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G).
Thanks to its massive 4200 mAh battery, Huawei promises users extended periods of use. Recharging the battery is also taken care of with the 40W Huawei SuperCharge that can charge from 0% to 70% in just 30 minutes. Safety is also assured, as this end-to-end charging solution is recognized and certified by TÜV Rheinland standards.
Meanwhile, overheating is solved with the HUAWEI SuperCool, a groundbreaking cooling solution that utilizes graphene film and vapor chamber to keep the phone cool and responsive during extended intensive use.
Entertainment enjoyed the best way
One of the added advantages of a 5G connection is the super-fast download speeds, which means stutter free streaming and lag-free gaming. To enjoy this, the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) comes with a massive 7.2 inch AMOLED Ultra-Large Screen, with the gameplay graphics further boosted by the famous GPU Turbo 3.0.
The HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) is still a Huawei flagship, which means it will come packed with powerful camera hardware. Housed in the Leica Triple Camera setup are a 40MP wide angle camera, 20MP ultra-wide camera and the 8MP telephoto camera which can create stunning shots be it macro to Ultra-Wide.
Thanks to these features, the HUAWEI Mate20 X (5G) is able to deliver a premium smartphone experience, while at the same time stand out from the growing crowd of 5G devices and promising users a completely unique 5G experience.
The HUAWEI Mate20 X 5G is available at Huawei Flagship Store in Riyadh Park at a price of 3,699 SAR.
