Huawei‘s first clamshell-type foldable is indeed coming to the Philippines alongside another phone from the legendary P series.

(Update, January 25: Huawei has announced the P50 Pro and P50 Pocket’s launch date in the Philippines!)

And while we don’t know the exact launch date of the premium devices just yet, the technology giant has announced an exclusive VIP preview of the Huawei P50 Pocket and Huawei P50 Pro at the following Experience Stores:

Starting tomorrow, January 7, you can get your hands on the two upcoming models every Thursday and Friday until January 29, so you can experience for yourself what each has to offer. It’s possible to get an in-depth take on photography using the P50 Pro, too; a Huawei expert will give you an exclusive walk-in experience. The smartphone is the top-ranked camera phone on camera-ratings platform Dxomark, after all.

The Pro model boasts a Leica-branded camera setup with a 50-megapixel main sensor, a 40-megapixel monochrome lens, a 64-megapixel zoom camera with a periscope lens and optical image stabilization, and a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle shooter. Expect to learn more about True-Form Dual-Matrix Camera, XD Optics, and True-Chroma Selfie Camera System during the session.

What do you need to do? Just register your interest here. For your safety, please take note that only 10 people will be allowed every day for the VIP Preview in-store activity. All participants will be given VIP treats after that. The first 40 Walk-in Experience participants, on the other hand, will each receive a free Wireless Charging Table Lamp.
