Huawei’s tri-folding phone looks sharp in teaser video

Huawei’s tri-folding phone, the Mate XT, is seemingly pulling off the greatest trick a folding phone can: It looks ordinary (when folded).

In a new teaser posted by Huawei on Weibo, the phone is clearly visible from the back, fully folded, and you could mistake it for any regular smartphone. The phone is also partially shown fully unfolded, and while we don’t get to see all that glorious screen real estate, it really does appear you get something akin to a full-sized tablet.

Rumors say the size of the display, when fully unfolded, will be 10 inches diagonally, which is comparable to the 8.3-inch iPad mini (though inevitably with a very different aspect ratio, as the Huawei certainly won’t be 5.3 inches tall like the iPad mini).

The big question, of course, is just how thick the Huawei Mate XT will be when folded. From what we can see in the video, it won’t be too bad, but it’ll certainly be thicker than an average phone.

Another interesting aspect of the Huawei Mate XT is the timing of its launch. Huawei has a launch event in China that starts hours after Apple’s iPhone 16 launch in California.
