Huawei Mate X5 Hands-On: Another Kirin 9000S Phone

- The Huawei Mate X5 is the second phone to run on Huawei's self-developed silicon, the Kirin 9000S. The rest of the hardware is almost identical to the Huawei Mate X3. In this video I do a speed test, simple camera test, and Geekbench 6 benchmark.
Thanks to Trinity Electronics for loaning me the phone. trinityelectronic - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Hi guys, so I made a mistake. For speed test, i tethered off my iPhone thinking it would test my 5G sim but I forgot that would be testing the iPhone’s modem not Huawei’s. However I did put my 5G sim IN the huawei mate 60 pro and that device got near 5G speeds. But yes for this video, pls ignore the speed test here.
I'm shocked you made that mistake but it's all good. You'll be ready next time.
Good to know that its cellular speed is on 5G level.
I lol'ed when you did that.
Please give a full review video in English. It is very very seldom to have review video in English for the new Huawei mobile. Many video just 'talk' only.
I was going to comment exactly that point
I think you missed out on the 'huawei near link' technology. After Huawei was expelled from the Bluetooth alliance, it combined the characteristics of Bluetooth and WIFL to create the "near link" and significantly led them. This is a major technological innovation.
Good for Huawei, before that crazy ban I had the Mate 7, Mate 9 and Mate 10. Huawei always been a great builder and innovator.
... and illegal copier of other people's innovation...

@@StarNumbersYou do realize that everything is a copy of everything, right?
@@StarNumberscopy of what? iPhone was a copy of PDAs, look that up.
Get a life! .... And live over it... Sad to hear Huawei has haunt your life since they become famous! 😂
Every time Huawei drops something I'm like: "Yo! Where's Ben!" Since he's basically the only big reviewer who still knows Huawei isn't out of the game. Great review too!
Yo! Ikr!!! I always think the same and even commented before. Always look out for that in depth video he put out.
This guy has deep pockets and connections.
Don't forget Ben is "headquarted" in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 which is connected to Shenzen a few hrs away by High-speed train :
@@ssrae-2229 this guy sounds like he's from the states. Just staying in his girlfriend's hk flat.
and the German guy too
The controversial part is not the chip, but US action in curbing tech players like TSMC, Samsung etc in working with Huawei, manifesting US dictatorship in tech industry.
Totally agree with you, it is ironic that our nation that call itself the free market champion is blocking companies to be competitive.
american: we gave democracy to iraq, cuba, venezuela, afghanistan..
and now, they are falling apart!
@@gabrielhoolans7127 they call themselves free market champion when theyre benefiting themselves, until someone catches up, they will kneecap you instantly.
My country need to butt out of countries business and show them to produce technology on there own.
The focus of a mobile phone is not how small its chip is, but its functionality and network speed. A 7nm phone can reach 5.5G speeds and can also make satellite calls. Isn’t this the biggest breakthrough? On the other hand, in the United States, even if the iPhone 15 uses a 3-nanometer chip, it will be useless because there is no 5G network in the United States. Why do I think so? Because I live in San Francisco, there are actually places where there is no network signal.
Always feels good to see Playstore on Huawei phones
x5 is different from x3 in another big way: x5 is capable of making 2-way satallite calls. it is the first consumer phone in the world capable of that.
second, Mate 60 Pro was the first xD
But sat call is it only available on China? Or other countries as well?
@@paradisefirefly anywhere the service satellites covers. at the moment i believe it is the whole Asia and some parts of europe and Africa.
@@qilu2004 that will be dam awesome i got to wait for Bens more review on the camera especially on ghe Video section

TRULY A LEGENDARY COMEBACK FROM THEM & PRETTY HOPEFUL THEY WILL DOING GOOD IN THE FUTURE
huawei is a miracle. Huawei is still the best phone I had
Nice Ben ,nice to see Huawei back where they belong , quality products and technology!! Ya Purple is cool !!!
Huawei is a blessing to the world of telecommunications and technology. It will continue to prevail continue to progress develop innovate to be self reliance self sufficient and to be free from colonial imperial bondage. Well done total support glory to Huawei
I ordered the mate 60 pro+ for some reason I'm rooting for Huawei
Hail Huawei!
Let them all compete fair and square and we, the customers, will pick the winner(s).
Speed is great, as fast as my LA home Wi-Fi speed. There is nothing controversial about the chip, it’s pointing a middle finger to US, good for you Huawei. I will buy one and use it in US just for that.
I’m so interested in the kirin 9000s drama
I've been waiting for this many days already. Thanks a lot, Ben! I trust you always.
This 9000s chip is capable running over 1500mpbs.
That's theoretical speed. No hardware achieves theoretical speeds. LOL.
@@marcusaureliusss you are wrong, people had tested over 1500 in China mobile Networks. It's a fact already
@@ronaldchan3401 Can you point me to video showing a mobile phone downloading over the Internet at 1500MBps?
@@marcusaureliusss我们在中国电信测试有超过2500mbps
Totally agree Ben the kirin 9000s is a big deal! The fact that Huawei was able to do this ,has ruffled some feathers! If you can do without GServices, the mate X5 is a great foldable 👍.
Thank you for the overview Ben🙂✌
Imagine if in 2 or 3 years from now, many midrange phones or even entry level smartphones from many other companies who makes android phones just use this kirin 9000s chipset for their phones product
as you can see, this phone have Google Services :) It wouldnt surprise me that, now that Huawei are free of Western tech, they can do whatever they like.
It's a big deal because it's not supposed to be possible. Not technology wise
Thanks Ben. The fact that Huawei is back with the Kirin processor is enough reason to buy it. I'm sure they will continue to revolutionize processors and pioneer technology in the near future. I can't wait for Mate X5 to hit the global market. "What I do is a guarantee of what I will do. " This is literally Huawei's motto. ❤
In India we get 3G speeds presented as 4G
Same here Bro in Ghana, West Africa
Thanks for the review. Anytime there's a new phone out, I wait for Ben's review. I'm from the US and I'm glad Huawei found a way around the blocking of their technology. I love the purple! This might be the phone I was waiting for. Watching and commenting on my Huawei Mate 20x.
....it seems to be performing even better than the triple8... If you add something for the GPU-score they are probably closer to 8G1 in AnTuTu which were 5 and 4nm respectively... So this is quite impressive!
Bro believe me I am loving Huawei mate x5 and mate 60 love the news about 5G. So happy for the I'm messaging on my mate 20 👍🏽
Thanks, you're the only one who really reviews huawei phone right on time!!!
Damn I can't wait switch my fold 5 to this 🔥
You're looney and trolling
Nice work Ben thanks. I'm definitely more interested in a "X3" with this SoC, namely X5..
"If you import this in the US, CIA may knock on your door" 😂😂
Continue to sell it on the European market p'ease. Your products are great and we buy it because of the quality and the technologies inside that are always at the top. We only want the best products at the correct price.
We continue to support you and Don t let us down because of some stupid peoples.... Please sell it on the French market. 🙏👍🌺
😂no Google's allowed in it. You still want it?
@@johnzheng7064Ceci n'est pas la page officielle de Huawei donc à qui vous adressez vous?
My 2 cents
I’ve never had access to use Huawei phones,cuz I like tech have always followed them and from what I can remember Man they made some amazing phone and in fact there camera tech was way ahead.I’m sure it made US & friends nervous and then came their downfall.
I would support them any day as they are true underdogs and beat all odds and did the impossible..first their OS and now silicon makes them truly independent.
Thanks Ben for bringing great content as always 🙏🙏
You are missing out
Love your videos. This was very informative and great! Thanks.
Thank you
Hi Bens, that video is great.
The Chip industry needs a 3rd partner into the game to boost the lack of chip production in the world right now.
Huawei and SMIC are moving in the right direction.
I'm rooting for Huawei. Im still holding on to my Mate 20 pro as my daily driver and hoping to change to this soon.
Same here.
If not for this google issue..
Although this chip applies 7nm processing, its multi-core performance in Huawei phones can rival the 4nm Snap 8+, just its energy efficiency is almost equal to the 5nm Snap 888, and overall experience can rival iPhone 14 pro
This device packs more features than all so called 8gen2 chips combined.......innovation
Kudos To Huawei...
Best Regards From South Africa l🇿🇦
I'm using my mate 40 very much in love with it 😍
i love your videos. Good job
I'm intrigued on how they are going to market their devices globally in the future with 5G capability with their own chip. The only thing that keeps people off from buying Huawei's devices right now is because of Google apps availability. It's interesting to see how they would try to sway people from Google's side, because that is a monumental challenge.
I'm confused, is it the simcard internet speed he is testing or the wifi?
Yeah although tech savvy person is pretty much going to be able to work around that. By using web apps and browsers and side loading APKs, micro g etc.... A tech savvy person would be able to replicate 99% of those Google services with out too much of a hassle
google play should be able to be installed by the user. I believe it's relatively easy.
@@VsnakmaVsbakakaother vlogger test the cellular (sim) download and it can reach 1000gbps (500gbps for mate 60 pro).

Another great review.
The phone looks impressive
This is actually the best and beautiful foldable phone I’ve ever seen. So lit 🔥.
Your getting good internet speed and your tethering from another phone is awesome. I live in the US and don't get those speeds on my cellular network. I need to find this phone fast.
Have mate40 pro+, just updated harmony 4, I installed Google service few months ago, everything works better than b4, like some app require Google account login, now it works, still need more testing
How are the thermals? *every* high end sub "7nm" smartphone chip has overheating and throttling problems. The most recent Snapdragon that didn't have this was the 7nm 870 (which performs comparably to this). Some of them have been seeing -50% performance in some applications when they throttle, knocking them down to around the 870s level or even lower.
Can the 9000s maintain high speeds for more than ~10 minutes? If it can, it's a keeper. If it can do that, it's a legitimate competitor on performance, and not just being sustained by buzz.
Ben you're the goat already but listening to Jihyo's killing me good just cemented that even more! Haha great video as always brother love what Huawei is doing
Thank you
I think how good a phone works isn't just dependant on the chip size. That's just one part of performance. Like having a V8 vs V6 in a car. Bigger isn't always faster. In this case smaller. Other parts in the system also count in the overall performance of a machine. If you can make your own OS tailored to working with your own chip even if the chip size is bigger than the the latest version it can maybe be just as good as a 3 nano meter. Your custom software optimized to your own chip might be better than a bloated generic Android version using a more advanced chip. Looks like the 5g chip in the phone is faster than others too so that probably affects overall performance.
Sensible comment.
I heard from China that Huawei had release an update to the HOS, which unlocks the CPU chip which push the bench mark up....and originally showing only 6 cores...but now more than 6 cores....
so the CPU seems to be more than what 4 or 3nm Apple and Snapdragon got....Can't wait for Sept 25th when Huawei makes the official phone launch event
Actually the mix fold 3 has the best hinge, it doesn't fall flat close to the display like you said...
Looks great nice Ben wish I could've got one USA needs to bring them back. I love the color is different.
Ben I really like your reviews, truly and I really want you to make a review on Huawei watch ultimate❤ I want to know your opinion on this watch and also probably against Apple watch ultra
it looks gorgeous actually I tried it, and very good OS, smooth and user friendly. The size is just nice for one hand operating when it folds. Sadly, I am not ready to leave iOS yet, cause I have too many apple items, watch ultra, MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, my parents’ iPhones, watches
Huawei phones were always top notch. I had the Mate 20X right before the stupid ban started. It was awesome and cameras were epic. Had Huawei not got Google banned I would still have one.
gbox return google service to huawei
Yes! I'm still using my Huawei mate 20 pro because no smartphone has captured my interest so far. im actually looking to move to foldables and the ones that i like are xiaomi and honor but they are not available globally. Im loving this and the x3 fold, i hope they recover fast so I can give them my money.
the smic 7n +2 is actually a 5nm design in the tsmc chip design. it has more density
Love X5! ❤❤❤❤❤
in my country the unlucky number is 17 but.... the country you go to, the custom you find. congratulations as always Ben. Do you think it will be launched internationally? Greetings
beautiful phone
Does this new Huawei foldable have the always on camera to scan for QR codes and barcodeslike the Mate 60?
The Huawei mate x5 fold is phenomenal. It has micro SD card, every camera is incredible, 3 to 5 day battery, stylus pen works every screen , big front screen, emergency satellite crash etc it's amazing and I'm a big Samsung fan
thanks for sharing
Finally a trustworthy review!
hi Ben, I saw you just unboxed this device but there was GSM on it. How did you do?
It's a bit pitty that X5 does not support the newsatellite call feature. Though it's understandable as it requires powerful atenna and colling system.
Will this be available with a Global Rom anytime soon?
Is this the phone with the 24/7 on back and front cameras to recognise laser scanners and QRcodes?
wonder If that affected the speed test result or not when the phone was at low battery stage
can you do selfies using the rear cam but use the front screen as a viewfinder? You can't do that on the mate x3.
hi Ben, the Mate X3 doesnt allow us to show outer screen as second viewfinder while in camera, how about the Mate X5?
Hmm yes it does, Im typing this on one and I use the external screen for taking selfies with the main camera all the time
@@Dare2Blink It’s something diffirent. It’s when I use the camera to take photo of other people but want them to see themself on the out screen at the same time, not about taking selfie.
@ hmm the process is the same my friend, first press the button to switch to the back camera after selecting selfie mode, now simply flip the phone and the person who you are photographing can use the view finder to see themselves.
@@Dare2Blink I think you misunderstood, Im not talking about the selfie mode. i want to use rear camera to take picture of the person in front of me (not myself) and allow them to see me on outer screen in the mean time. No selfie whatsoever.
@ I understood you, maybe im not explaining myself properly. What I mean is that you first activate selfie mode, then activate the main real camera, and then take the photo of however you are photographing. The only downside is that the main screen will be off, but the person who you are photographing will be able to see himself.
What about battery life and heat? are there any problems
Could you please share the buying link 🙏
Am no expert but I wonder why the smaller the nm are said to be better? Is it not referring to the size and more components fit into the tiny size? If one does not need tiny chip but able to produce, say 7nm and be able to put more stuff in it, is it not OK? Sorry if this question sound stupid.
I would like to see some battery takes on these phones with that chip. Performance seems reasonable...but super curious how efficient it is with this unkown fabrication tech.
Any info about WPS office pc level and stylus?
That "CIA" part is just hilarious 🤣, Love your videos and its jokes man 🙌
Should play the FBI banging door down
Jai Hinduja. I don't know about CIA. But Merkel had complained that the Obama dude frequently pops up in her phone.
You one of those legit reviewers like i always say who still values Huawei. Loved this one as well. And I have been asking for it, never received a response or seen anywhere why you haven't still put out an in-depth video of the P60 Pro , like " A day with the P60 Pro " like those shots you shared on Insta. Now, I am looking forward to Mate 60 in-depth video , comparing iphone 15pro. Thanks for your effort Ben! Keep it coming! ✨
To be honest. I don’t have time. There’s too much to do.
Crazy comeback from Huawei the us sanctions made their r&d better .
They're 2 years behind. How is that better?
Hey Ben, you have a link for the GMS installation?
Even I as a Samsung s23 ultra owner and fan , I admit I have massive respect for Huawei, Xiaomi, One Plus open, and Honor offer. Here in the US they actually think Apple is better than android , which is laughable. We can all agree as tech enthusiasts they are all way more innovative than Apple . The reason I like Samsung is Samsung has wireless powershare and charging, water resistance, s pen gestures and utilization when my fingers get tired and for photos from a distance , Samsung Members, Samsung health , Samsung flow , Dex , Samsung TV , wireless projection , etc
"Foaming in the mouth! " 😂😂😂 I like that!
Standard English phrase
I read somewhere that mate 60 and that phone is not for sale outside of china?
speaker is amazing
Whats the price mark up?
Please where can i order it from?? I can’t seem to buy from huawei site
Hope next year Huawei does something crazy and make the the first 2nm chip . I also hopw they make affordable phones with the best performance and cameras.
7nm vs 5nm. what is the different in chip size?
Bravo Huawei 🎉
The GOAT of foldable phones
Not necessarily.
Vivo X Fold 2 easily trades blows vs the Mate X5.
I'm using a Galaxy S22 Ultra now but really miss the days when Huawei was in its prime(I used the Mate 20 Pro and P30 Pro seemed nice).
If I can use Google officially, I'm willing to use a Huawei flagship again.
You tried searching for "Hong Kong Huawei Google" or you could find the relevant link, and they found the method.
😂 same as me, mate 20 pro then, s22 ultra, and p30 pro my wife.
I switched from the Mate 20X to the S22 Ultra. How I miss my 20X! Reliable, bug-free, unlike the S22U!
My dream phone
華為mate X5 有人從TH-cam 放上網的測試結果 👉 ( 1 ) 可以擋子彈 ( 2 ) 放在洗衣機內 , 開機15分鐘攪拌 , 拿出來一點事情都沒有 , 防水功能一絕 （3 ） 在高速公路上 以120米的時速..打開手機 , 直接掉下去 , 手機一點事情都沒有 , 只是有兩三條小花痕 , 而且最神奇的事 , 一夜之間 , 晶片從7納米變成5納米 , 衛星通訊連蘋果手機都沒有 , 華為這幾款手機 , 真是地球上最優秀的產品 🇨🇳👍

Hey ben, mind sharing if there is any google services? I saw playstore. Do you have to sideload it?
Yes there is. But it’s the hacky way mentioned it
As far as I know Huawei has the play store substitute, their on GPS, their own search engine and more. Soon enough huawei will be rocking the Global market
not seeing this phone on trinity website, not even the mate 60 pro
China 🇨🇳 it's a great country. Deserve respect
It's already available in South Africa.
The huawei mate 60 pro, mate 60 pro + and X5 have the same chip
Dear Ben, Thanks for covering the phone. You say you don’t even have a SIM card in the X5. In this case, you were definitely not testing the cellular speed, just the Wi-Fi speed. You’ll have to put an actual SIM card into it and check the results.
I’m connected to my iPhone’s SIM card. The building I’m in has no wifi
@@bensgadgetreviews This is clear to me. But the iPhone is acting as your Wi-Fi. The fact that iPhone is using 5G does not change this. You are just testing the Wi-Fi speed of X5, and indirectly the 5g speed of the iPhone.
@@arvandvarahramx5 can reach 1000gbps cellular download, based on other vlogger.
Yeah... If he doesn't know this, that is very concerning for a tech reviewer. Or for impartiality from Huawei.@@arvandvarahram
Huawei has also made the Nova 12 Ultra with the aforementioned Kirin 9000S chip, which may or may not further cement the fact that Huawei might mass produce these chips in the near future.
