'Huawei Mate X' foldable phone appears on billboard ahead of MWC 2019 launch

Samsung isn't the only one with a foldable device coming out. Chinese company Huawei has its own take on the trend. Plus, it's throwing in one more "buzzy" feature: 5G connectivity. Huawei already announced that it had plans to show this new piece of tech off at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. And this photo of workers putting up a billboard at MWC seems to confirm the news. It's being called the Mate X and you can see the tagline "World's Fastest Foldable 5G Phone" in the billboard.

Unlike Samsung's take, the Mate X's larger screen seems to be wrapped around the outside of the device. We're not sure yet what it's going to look from the other side but we will find out about it today as Huawei will be holding its press conference at 2 p.m. Barcelona time.

Oppo may not have a presence here, but the Chinese company is working on something you will want to pay attention to. Ahead of Mobile World Congress 2019, it just showed its 10x Lossless Zoom concept at its Oppo Innovation Event in Barcelona. It debuted in a prototype device a three-camera system that has wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto lens, which gives you a total range of 16-160mm. It will also use a 6.76mm-thick camera module, which makes room for a larger sensor that can let more light in and boost image quality.
