Huawei's Mate X will reportedly be launched in September at the latest, after being delayed earlier this month. The time frame for its foldable phone launch was confirmed by a Huawei exec, TechRadar reported Friday afternoon.
"It's coming in September at the latest," Vincent Peng, a senior vice president at the company, told TechRadar. "Probably earlier, but definitely September is guaranteed."
The $2,600 Mate X was delayed from its summer launch in part to improve the quality of the foldable screen, Peng reportedly told The Wall Street Journal last week.
"We're doing a lot of tests," Peng told the Journal.
Korean tech giant Samsung also had to delay the launch of its foldable phone. It had initially planned to launch the Galaxy Fold in April, but review units suffered from problems including bubbling under the screen and displays breaking. The company then postponed the release of the device.
