Pros

Human Checked Mobile Phone Pros&Cons With Quality Mark
Camera
The Huawei Mate X3 packs a triple camera on the back and two 8MP selfie cameras - one on each screen.
Design
First and foremost, the X3 is thin and light. It weights just 239g.
Despite its relatively small size, the Mate X3 has a pair of very large displays.
Its hinge design is truly impressive.
The Mate X3 is the first non-Samsung foldable to achieve an ingress protection rating.
Battery
The Mate X3 still packs a large 4,800 mAh battery.
Other
The Huawei Mate X3 is a truly impressive piece if engineering. Huawei managed to craft an amazing device on a number of levels.
The Mate X3 also feels incredibly well made, with practically no flex to speak of.
