However, the mobile phone’s pre-sales activity in the UK has been suspended. A Vodafone spokesperson told The Verge that the Huawei Mate 20X 5G version temporarily stopped accepting reservations. According to media reports, the reason for the UK operator to suspend Huawei Mate 20 X 5G subscription is that Huawei cannot obtain the full version of Android.
