Huawei Pocket S launching on November 2

Huawei is launching its second clamshell foldable on November 2. The company confirmed the launch event for the Huawei Pocket S will start at 7PM Beijing time (11AM UTC) and we got a short teaser video that doesn’t really give us much to work with.

The P50 Pocket successor was certified on TENAA back in August where we got a glimpse of its design. Based on the new teaser video and a post from Huawei CEO Richard Yu, the Pocket S will be offered in plenty of vibrant colors including blue, pink, green and yellow. The device is expected to be equipped with the Snapdragon 888 4G chipset though rumors suggest we may also see a lower-priced Snapdragon 778G model as well.
