I really love the horsepowers they have... But sadly, economy is a real thing.

Mate X is a good idea esp when using to browse web.
My generic tab for instance in portrait mode, the page is too narrow. In landscape mode, there's not enuf vertical space to view the web page.
The Mate X seems to address this issue with its large squarish 8" unfolded screen.

How Huawei's Foldable Mate X Can Be Apple's Nightmare In China

It just got harder for Apple to revive flagging iPhone sales in the all-important China following the launch of the Huawei Mate X.
Huawei stole the show at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona when it launched on Feb. 25 the $2,600 Mate X, a foldable smartphone that can be expanded into an eight-inch tablet when fully folded out. While Mate X isn’t expected to have mass-market appeal simply because of its price tag, analysts say it still can help Huawei seize more ground in China at the expense of Apple. This is because ultra-wealthy Chinese such as local entrepreneurs are losing interest in the U.S. behemoth. They no longer clamor for the $1,000-plus iPhones, which are now considered as lacking innovation, and wouldn’t mind paying extra for a feature-filled alternatives.
“Previously, the most expensive iPhones are a top choice in China,” says James Yan, a research director at Counterpoint Research. “But this type of affluent consumers will instead wait for Mate X to go on sale now.”
When the Mate X goes on sale this summer, analysts expect consumers to also purchase other Huawei brand products such as the high-end P series and the Mate series. By being one of the first to launch a foldable phone, which in the future may render tablets obsolete, Huawei is building brand awareness that could drive future sales.
“After seeing the MateX, Chinese consumers will be more tempted to try other high-end Huawei devices,” says Jia Mo, an analyst at market research firm Canalys. “At a time when the iPhones haven’t had major upgrades, the Mate X definitely boosts Huawei’s brand image.”

Quick question: do you guys ever sleep? Seriously, the pace at which you're moving is just insane.
