Foldable phones have been making waves for a while now, but Huawei’s newest offering, the Mate XT, is truly something special. This device isn’t just a phone that folds in half; it boasts a revolutionary tri-folding design, making it a technological marvel that’s barely thicker than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6.
Imagine a phone that unfolds to a sprawling 10.2-inch OLED screen – that’s the size of many tablets! The Huawei Mate XT achieves this impressive feat with its three folds, offering a unique and expansive viewing experience. But that’s not all. You can also use the phone like a regular book-style foldable, opening only two of the folds to reveal a 7.9-inch display, similar in size to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
This futuristic device isn’t just about screen size; it’s also about achieving remarkable thinness. When completely unfolded, the Mate XT measures a mere 3.6mm at its thickest point, which is only to accommodate the USB-C port. And when folded, it boasts a slim 12.8mm profile. Despite its wafer-thin design, the Mate XT doesn’t compromise on power. It packs a punch with 16GB of RAM, up to 1TB of storage, and a trio of high-performance cameras – a 50MP primary lens, a 12MP ultrawide lens, and a 12MP 5.5x telephoto lens. To keep you going all day, the phone is equipped with a massive 5,600 mAh battery that supports fast charging.
While the Mate XT promises a truly remarkable experience, it’s currently only available in China for the equivalent of $2,800. For now, U.S.-based fans will have to wait and see if this futuristic phone makes its way to other markets. But one thing is certain: the Mate XT is a testament to Huawei’s commitment to innovation and pushing the boundaries of what a smartphone can be.
