EDITORIAL: A small miracle of engineering (pun intended), the Mate X7 goes as thin as it can be (if you want to keep the USB-C port): 4.5mm. Huawei fitted a 5600mAh battery that will deliver a full-day endurance (on outer screen). Imaging is excellent as is IP59 (immersible to 2m!) protection but that is where "amazing" ends. OS and lack of Google services remain a problem while processing power shows potential but it's still far behind competing foldable phones.
PROs
excellent build with a hard-to-believe thinness especially when open, <1200nits bright >400ppi 120Hz LTPO OLED screens with HDR Vivid (HDR10+ equivalent) standard, impressive IP59 protection, excellent imaging from a 50MP 24mm variable f1.5-4.0 OIS main + 50MP 84mm OIS periscope telephoto + 40MP 13mm ultrawide (all with PDAF) setup, top selfies from the back cameras cluster, excellent video recording, full featured desktop replacement functionality, fast USB-C 3.2 with Display Port 1.2 and OTG
CONs
low scores on Kirin 9030 Pro with UFS 4.x performance, just a day of endurance from a 5600mAh battery with sub-45min 66W (50W wireless) charging, only 3 years of OS updates, no Google services out of the box (tho you can add most), limited AI integration compared to market leaders, limited availability

EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, charging, screen and imaging performance) Google improved the 10 Pro Fold by making it narrower, thinner and almost 20g lighter, upgraded the processor and made screens brighter and their bezels thinner. The imaging is the same but battery lost some 200mAh to fit into a smaller body (Google stonewalls Si-C battery tech). At least wireless Q2 charging boy a body from 15W to 25W.
PROs
excellent build with full water & dust protection, very bright ~2000nits sub-400ppi 120Hz LTPO AMOLED screens (inner one is HDR10+ too), IP68 protection, reliable 48MP 24mm OIS main + okay 10.8MP 112mm OIS telefoto + below -par 10.5MP ultrawide setup, 2 10MP 23mm PDAF selfies, average video recording, 7 years of updates for stabile and feature loaded OS, basic desktop replacement functionality built into Android 17, fast USB-C 3.2 port, Satellite SOS Service
CONs
mediocre Tensor G6 (3nm) with UFS 4.0 performance, barely a day endurance from a 4800mAh lithium battery with 90min slow 30W (25W wireless) charging, no expandable memory, limited market availability
