It&#8217;s available in White, Black, and this lovely Nebula Red color. You get the one configuration, but it&#8217;s a solid 16\/512GB. The price is \u20ac2,099, a bit more than similar phones like the Honor Magic V5 (\u20ac1,599).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251328_132_gsmarena_001.jpg\" alt=\"Huawei Mate X7 in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>For the price, you get a solid retail experience. You get a USB-A to USB-C cable, a 66W  charger, and a case with a detachable kickstand. The Nebula Red model we have here has a vegan leather finish, just like the Black model. The Brokade White model&#8217;s rear panel has a woven brocade finish, essentially a textured layer made up of tiny threads woven together.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_002.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Inside the box - a case and charger\" width=\"215\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251328_579_gsmarena_002.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_003.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Inside the box - a case and charger\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251329_321_gsmarena_003.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_004.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Inside the box - a case and charger\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251329_993_gsmarena_004.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>Inside the box &#8211; a case and charger<\/p>\n<p>The Huawei Mate X7 is among the prettiest foldables this year. Its sides are lightly curved, which is arguably a detriment to the ease of opening and closing, but looks nicer, somehow crafted better than the plain flat sides on a Galaxy Z Fold7.<\/p>\n<p>And while the Samsung is a slimmer and lighter phone, the Huawei Mate X7 has a 30% bigger battery with much faster charging.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251329_740_gsmarena_009.jpg\" alt=\"Huawei Mate X7 in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The cover screen is slightly bigger than on last year&#8217;s Mate X6 &#8211; it measures 6.49&#8243; in diagonal. It&#8217;s also slightly brighter at a 3,000 nit peak brightness. It&#8217;s still covered by Huawei&#8217;s in-house Kunlun Glass 2.<\/p>\n<p>The inner screen is also slightly larger at 8 inches, compared to Mate X6&#8217;s 7.93&#8243; display. It&#8217;s an excellent panel with nearly no creases. Huawei&#8217;s hinge design is very sturdy and solid-feeling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_005.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Huawei Mate X7\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251330_475_gsmarena_005.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_006.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Huawei Mate X7\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251330_782_gsmarena_006.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_007.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Huawei Mate X7\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251330_621_gsmarena_007.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>The Huawei Mate X7<\/p>\n<p>The main 24mm shooter is seemingly the same &#8211; Huawei kept the variable aperture f\/1.4-f4.0 lens. Ditto the 40MP ultrawide and 8MP dual selfies.<\/p>\n<p>But the periscope zoom camera is new. It&#8217;s a 50MP sensor with an 81mm f\/2.2 (3.5x) lens, which is brighter than the 90mm f\/3.0 unit on the old model. We&#8217;ll assess its performance in our review, but it sounds like an improvement on paper.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251330_914_gsmarena_008.jpg\" alt=\"Huawei Mate X7 in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The other ways in which the Huawei Mate X7 is better than the Mate X6 are the battery and the chipset. The Mate X7 adds 400mAh to the Mate X6&#8217;s 5,200mAh unit, which should translate to better endurance.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s the 6nm Kirin 9030, up from the 7nm Kirin 9020. It has a new 9-core processor with higher clock speeds across all cores, and a newer GPU. It will be interesting to compare its performance, performance-wise, to the old chip in the Mate X6.<\/p>\n<p>All of that and more is coming with our full review &#8211; stay tuned!<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_010.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The screens\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251330_442_gsmarena_010.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_011.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The screens\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251331_667_gsmarena_011.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/25\/12\/huawei-mate-x7-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_012.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The screens\" width=\"215\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766251331_474_gsmarena_012.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/>The screens<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Huawei Mate X7 is now an international phone.
