Huawei Pocket S2 Launch Reportedly Delayed Until February 2024
According to tipster FixedFocus, the launch of the Huawei Pocket S2 may have been delayed from its expected release in December 2023 to February 2024. This news comes after reports that both the Pocket S2 and the Huawei Nova 12 launches have been postponed until next year.
Huawei's Success in the Foldable Phone Market
Huawei has been making significant strides in the foldable phone market, offering devices in three distinct categories: side-folding, in-ward folding, and clamshell-style. Earlier this year, the company launched the Mate X3 and the Mate X5, both of which received positive reviews.
Rumored Clamshell-Style Foldable Phone
Rumors suggest that Huawei is currently working on a new clamshell-style foldable phone, possibly the Pocket S2. Tipster DigitalChatStation has even shared an image of what appears to be a transparent case for the smartphone. The image reveals that the phone will have two large circles, larger than those on the Pocket S and P50 Pocket devices. However, the overall design is expected to be similar to Huawei's current vertical foldable phones.
Delay in Official Launch
Unfortunately, due to the reported delay, we will have to wait a while longer for the official launch of the Pocket S2. The phone is expected to be the successor to the Pocket S, which was launched in November 2023.
Specifications of the Pocket S
To recap, the Pocket S is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G 4G processor, supported by an adaptive graphene heat dissipation unit. It features a 6.9-inch OLED panel with a resolution of 2790 × 1188 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, and 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming. The display also has a 300Hz touch sampling rate and supports 1.07 billion colors with a P3 wide color gamut. Additionally, there's an external screen with a 1.04-inch 340 × 340 circular OLED display. The device is powered by a 4000mAh battery that supports 40W wired charging.
Conclusion
While the Huawei Pocket S2 launch may have been delayed until February 2024, fans of Huawei's foldable phones can still look forward to the arrival of this rumored clamshell-style device. With its impressive specifications and innovative design, the Pocket S2 is expected to be another standout addition to Huawei's foldable phone lineup.
