Huawei recently introduced a tri-fold phone for the local market, the Mate XT with a price reaching five figures. Huawei is seen leading the tri-fold device arena today compared to other manufacturers, and also comes with an interface optimized for the display panel.
Recently, there have been early rumors that Huawei has temporarily postponed the development of a new generation tri-fold phone. This may be in an effort to focus on global marketing, while also finding a way to come up with new innovations and not just updated specifications.
It is said that Huawei's second-generation tri-fold device may arrive around mid-2026. The device is also expected to include better camera support.
The Huawei Mate XT was previously introduced in Malaysia in mid-February 2025, at a price of RM14,999.
