Tri-Fold Productivity Phones

Huawei Unveils the Mate XTs with a Tri‑fold Design & M‑pen 3 Stylus

Huawei introduces the Mate XTs as an elevated take on its tri-fold smartphone concept, offering improved durability and creative potential. The device unfolds into a 10.2-inch OLED display and folds down into 7.9- and 6.4-inch configurations for versatile use. A more resilient Tiangong hinge system supports the design, while finishes in white, purple, red, and black imitation leather expand aesthetic choice. Powered by the Kirin 9020 chipset with an upgraded 40-megapixel ultrawide camera, the Mate XTs delivers smoother performance and sharper imagery at a lower price point than its predecessor.

The addition of M-Pen 3 stylus support transforms the device into a multifunctional tool for productivity. Capabilities such as global annotation, handwriting-to-text conversion, split-screen excerpt dragging, and remote control mode enhance both work and creative use. By merging advanced hardware with intuitive features, the Mate XTs pushes foldable phones further into the realm of professional versatility.
