Introduction

The HUAWEI Mate X6 price in Malaysia launches around RM 8,688 for the 12 GB + 512 GB variant. (WISER.MY)
This foldable flagship brings a large internal screen, sleek design, and camera innovations that set it apart.
In my use, the phone felt impressively thin when opened and lives up to the “foldable flagship” promise.
If you are looking for a high‑end foldable phone in Malaysia, the Mate X6 deserves a serious look.

Design & Build Quality

The Mate X6 features a foldable design with ultra‑thin profile when unfolded (around 4.6 mm) and weighs about 239 g.
The build uses premium materials including aluminium, vegan fibre/leather finishes in colours Nebula Red, Nebula Grey and Black.
It also carries an IPX8 rating (water splash resistant) and durable hinge design. (Malaysianews TV)
From my experience, the finish feels very premium and the size works well for a large screen while still being comfortable.

Display

The display setup of the Mate X6 is impressive. It has a large internal 7.93‑inch LTPO OLED display with 1‑120 Hz refresh rate and a cover screen of 6.45‑inch with similar LTPO 1‑120 Hz.
The internal resolution is 2440 × 2240 pixels, and it offers high brightness (up to ~2,500 nits on cover screen) for outdoor visibility.
Whether for video viewing or multitasking, the screen is immersive and fluid.

Performance & Processor

Under the hood the Mate X6 is powered by a chipset reported as the Kirin 9020 (or equivalent) in Malaysia.
In real‑world use I found multi‑tasking, large apps and switching between internal cover screen very smooth.

RAM, Storage & Expandability

The Malaysian variant offers 12 GB RAM + 512 GB storage (as per Malaysian launch).
There is no microSD expansion mentioned, so choosing sufficient internal storage is important for heavy usage.
From my perspective, the 512 GB model is the right fit for most users who will make full use of the large screen.

Software

The phone runs on Huawei’s software layer (EMUI/HarmonyOS variant) tailored for large screens and multi‑window tasks. (Nextrift)
Features like live multitasking (running up to three apps on the screen at once) enhance productivity. For Malaysian users comfortable with the ecosystem, the software is polished.

Camera Setup

The Mate X6 camera system is very capable:

• 50 MP main camera with variable aperture (f/1.4‑f/4.0)
• 48 MP telephoto macro (approx. 4× optical zoom)
• 40 MP ultra‑wide camera (Malaysianews TV)
  Front cameras include 8 MP sensors for internal and cover screens.
  In photographic tests, the phone produces sharp, high‑detail images and handles low‑light conditions well thanks to the large sensor and optics.

Battery & Charging

The Mate X6 packs a 5,110 mAh battery and supports 66W wired SuperCharge plus 50W wireless charging. (sssolution.com.my)
In everyday use I found it lasted a full day with moderate to heavy usage, with fast top‑ups enabled by the charging speeds.
This is a strong result for a foldable device of this class.

Connectivity & Sensors

Connectivity includes 4G/5G support (though check variant), Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, GPS. (TechNave)
Sensors include fingerprint (under‑display), ambient light, gyroscope, accelerometer, etc. The foldable hinge design also adds complexity but Huawei has implemented a durable solution.
For Malaysian buyers connectivity is solid and features are modern.

Variants & Colors

Variants available in Malaysia include 12 GB + 512 GB for the standard model. Collector’s editions (higher RAM/storage) may exist.
Colours offered: Nebula Red, Nebula Grey, Black.
These choices give styling options while maintaining flagship status.
