Key information

  • Speculations suggest Huawei is developing a tri-fold successor to the Mate XT with several significant enhancements.
  • There is said to be potential for a more advanced processor and camera capabilities.
  • An insider has indicated the gadget might be unveiled in the “second half” of 2025, possibly coinciding with the original’s release in September last year.

Initial rumors indicate that Huawei is working on its upcoming tri-fold smartphone.

These claims emerged from a reputable Chinese insider, Digital Chat Station (DCS), on Weibo (via Android Headlines). The source suggests that Huawei is creating a follow-up to its Mate XT tri-fold, potentially named the “Mate XT 2,” if we consider naming conventions. There are reportedly additional enhancements concerning the hardware of this new device.

DCS contends that the tri-fold could feature a completely new, upgraded SoC (processor), likely based on an “N-1” generation chip. In response to a question, DCS noted the possibility of the chip being Huawei’s Kirin 9020. Furthermore, the phone’s photographic capabilities could receive a boost, although it’s uncertain how far Huawei is prepared to advance its camera technology.
