World's first tri-fold smartphone receives 1.3 million orders within hours
Huawei Technologies, a leading Chinese smartphone brand and telecom equipment supplier, has witnessed an overwhelming response for its latest innovation - the Mate XT. The company's official website began accepting pre-orders for this triple foldable smartphone on Saturday and within just seven hours, approximately 1.3 million people had placed their orders. This surge in demand underscores the growing consumer interest in Huawei's cutting-edge technology.
Mate XT to be unveiled following iPhone launch
The official unveiling of the Mate XT is scheduled for Tuesday. This event will closely follow Apple's reveal of the iPhone 16 series later today. The timing of these two significant product launches highlights the competitive nature of the global smartphone market, and sets up an interesting showdown between Huawei's innovative tri-fold design and Apple's latest offerings.
The foldable unfolds into a tablet-like display
The Mate XT is Huawei's first smartphone to feature a unique tri-fold design. This innovative form factor allows the device to fold out into a larger display, providing users with an enhanced viewing experience. The phone's design is expected to set new standards in the industry and contribute significantly to Huawei's position in the market. The Mate XT will come in at least 16GB/512GB and 16GB/1TB configurations. Pricing and other specifications should be available when the phone launches officially.
