The phone is rated IP59 and IP58 for water and dust resistance, which means it can handle hot water up to 80 degrees and survive immersion in fresh water up to two meters.

On the camera side, the Mate X7 comes with Huawei’s new True-to-Colour Camera system. It has a 50MP Ultra Lighting HDR Camera with a wide dynamic range and a 50MP Telephoto Macro Camera that can capture both wide landscapes and close-up details.

The phone unfolds into an 8-inch screen wrapped in vegan leather. It supports multitasking with up to three app windows and runs Google apps alongside Huawei’s AppGallery.
