Foldable Smartphone

Huawei launched the Mate XTs, its second-generation trifold smartphone, on September 4, 2025. Priced from $2,520, the Mate XTs features a unique dual-hinge design which unfolds into a tablet-sized display. Huawei aims to solidify its position in the Chinese market, where it holds a leading market share in foldables. The launch highlights Huawei’s resurgence after U.S. sanctions, with its HarmonyOS and domestically sourced chips. Despite its success in China, global expansion remains a challenge. The Mate XTs features HarmonyOS 5.1, multitasking capabilities, and offers enhanced after-sales support.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 redefines the foldable smartphone with its ultra-slim design and enhanced AI capabilities. Thinner and lighter than previous models, it boasts larger cover and main displays for improved multitasking. AI integration, informed by user data, streamlines interactions with features like Smart Drag and Drop and Real-time Window. Live Briefing provides personalized notifications, ensuring users stay informed without constant unfolding. The Z Fold7 represents a fusion of sleek design and intelligent technology.
