Manila, Philippines (February 21, 2025) — HUAWEI’s near-decade exploration of the endless possibilities of the foldable design has given rise to the world’s first tri-fold smartphone, the HUAWEI Mate XT. Through HUAWEI’s daring imagination and relentless pursuit, the impossible has become possible with the smartphone’s groundbreaking inward and outward folding capabilities.

This industry-leading device, which embodies HUAWEI’s determination to continue innovating and pushing the boundaries of technology, is slated to soon launch in the Philippines.

Ultimate Craftsmanship for Design Excellence

The HUAWEI Mate XT is a breakthrough in foldable technology, pushing the boundaries of innovation beyond imagination with its ultra-slim profile and tri-fold design. At just 3.6mm thin, this tri-fold marvel achieves a level of sleekness previously thought impossible even for bar-type devices and tablets. When folded, the HUAWEI Mate XT’s thickness is almost equivalent to two coins on top of each other. When fully unfolded, it rivals the slender profile of a single coin.

Despite its ultra-thin frame, the HUAWEI Mate XT is powered by an unbelievably slim 1.9mm 5,600mAh battery to deliver uncompromised performance in an impossibly compact form. The device features a unique noble ID design, allowing the tri-fold phone to embody elegance and sophistication. It inherits the Star Diamond design, enhanced with a Sinusoidal Cutting design for sharper lines and a striking three-dimensional structure that shines brightly under the light.

The phone’s Eonic Curves, achieved through 78 intricate processes, showcases HUAWEI’s craftsmanship and innovation. The device is wrapped in an ultra-thin 0.47mm leather to give it a refined, premium texture. It features a polished Umber Gold Waistline for an added touch of elegance.

Revolutionizing the Fold with Hinge Precision Technology

The HUAWEI Mate XT represents a groundbreaking achievement in foldable technology as the world’s first foldable smartphone with both inward and outward folding capabilities. It features an Advanced Precision Hinge System to ensure seamless alignment between the hinge and screen. 

One of the main challenges in foldable technology is developing a screen that can withstand both compression, for inward folding, and tension, for outward folding. The HUAWEI Mate XT overcomes this with multi-directional flexible materials, increasing bend resistance. Non-Newtonian Fluid Materials and a 322cm² ultra-thin glass (UTG) layer enhance the phone’s impact resistance. To maintain an ultra-thin profile without compromising durability, the inner folding hinge features an embedded rail structure. Meanwhile, the outward folding hinge adopts a one-piece linkage structure. 

The HUAWEI Mate XT pioneers the Multi-Drive Precision Tuning technology, which optimizes the opening force curve for a smooth and precise folding experience. 26 precision cams finetune the hinge movement. The core components of the phone’s hinge is made from 100% ultra-high strength steel, with up to 1900 MPa deformation resistance, ensuring exceptional durability even under continuous folding and unfolding. The next-generation aerospace-grade fiber body strikes a balance between lightweight design and extreme strength.

Pocketable PC, Tablet, and Phone in One

The HUAWEI Mate XT redefines versatility with its adaptive triple-screen technology, seamlessly transitioning between Single Screen, Dual Screen, and Triple Screen modes to offer an unparalleled experience tailored to user needs. Ensuring seamless connectivity across all screen modes, AI-powered antenna optimization intelligently detects signal strength and grip positions to select the best antenna configuration for enhanced performance even in weak-signal environments.

In Single Screen Mode, the device functions as a compact 6.4-inch bar-type phone with 2232×1008 screen resolution, perfect for quick, everyday tasks while maintaining exceptional portability. Dual Screen Mode expands to 7.9 inches, enabling effortless multitasking, document reading, and split-screen browsing for enhanced productivity. When fully unfolded, Triple Screen Mode delivers a 10.2-inch display, offering an immersive experience for binge-watching, remote work, and other important tasks. 

Its 16:11 golden aspect ratio and 92% screen-to-body ratio create a deeply engaging viewing experience, ideal for cinematic entertainment or mobile working alike. The 3K HUAWEI X-True Display ensures exceptional clarity, vivid colors, and striking contrast in either portrait or landscape mode. The device also personalizes the experience by allowing custom wallpapers for each screen mode.
