Huawei's Mate 20 X may have looked like an afterthought at the announcement yesterday, as it was announced way after the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, but it certainly seems like it's something more than that... something bigger!
Yeah, the Mate 20 X is huge. 7.2-inch screen huge! Compared to the Galaxy Note 9 — a phone that is already pretty big — the Mate 20 X still looks like a slab.
Thankfully, Huawei isn't relying only on a big screen to sell this device. No, no, there's support for a new Huawei M-Pen, which kind of sounds like it'll work like a Samsung S Pen, but will be sold separately; there are also stereo speakers with enhanced bass chambers in there; there's a gargantuan, 5,000 mAh battery inside; and there's a gamepad specifically developed for the Mate 20 X to kind of transform it into a sort-of-Nintendo-Switch (but not quite) console.
Yeah, it sounds cool... but is that size overkill? Well, we thought we'd ask you — would you own a smartphone with a 7.2-inch screen?
