Huawei Redesigns Folding Mechanism for Next-Gen Trifold Smartphone
Huawei has redesigned the folding mechanism for its upcoming trifold smartphone, the Mate XT 2. Unlike the original model’s Z-shaped fold design from last year, the new version features inward-folding side panels that only allow access to the larger screen when fully unfolded. The device is now available for preorder in China ahead of a September 7th pricing reveal. The Huawei Mate XT 2 will be offered with multiple storage configurations ranging from 512GB to 2TB, all featuring 16GB of RAM. While specific price details remain undisclosed until later this month, the redesign marks a significant shift in usability and design philosophy for trifold smartphones.
