UAE, 17 December 2025 – The evolution of smartphones took a new trajectory in the summer of 2024. After months of speculation and rumours, as Huawei unveiled the first-ever commercially available trifold to the world, it was praised universally. It proved that there is still room for groundbreaking innovations in smartphones. The HUAWEI Mate XT was so ahead of its time, it took the competition over a year to release a viable triple fold.

After months of anticipation and media buzz, the trifold sensation, HUAWEI Mate XT, has finally arrived, marking a significant milestone in foldable smartphone technology. As more users get their hands on this innovative device, they are discovering that it offers much more than just the groundbreaking triple folding screen that initially stole the spotlight. Beyond the eye-catching display, the Mate XT has captivated users with its exceptional design and state-of-the-art camera features. This is a smartphone that’s reimagining how we interact with them.

Early Emergence of Revolutionary Foldable Design 

While most foldables in the market have been criticised for their bulky builds and overly mechanical aesthetics, the Mate series foldables have managed to remain uncompromising in their design. In fact, Huawei has laid new inroads in foldable design even before the Mate XT. A few months ago, the HUAWEI Mate X6 was launched to widespread acclaim, introducing a new foldable screen architecture that includes a Carbon Fiber Inner Screen Plate for support, a Multi-dimensional Hinge as the structural backbone, and the rugged 2nd Generation Kunlun glass for the exterior screen. These remarkable materials significantly enhanced the durability of the bifold while preserving its thin and lightweight appearance.
