Pushing the boundaries of smartphone technology, the HUAWEI Mate XT is the world's first tri-fold phone, setting a new benchmark for foldable devices with its keen emphasis on sleek design and multi-functionality.

At just 3.6 mm when unfolded, it is one of the slimmest folding smartphones available, offering both ease of carry and multiple viewing options for varying use cases.

The HUAWEI Mate XT is available in two colours - red and black - topped off with its elegant Eonic Curves - a precision-crafted design feature fitted around its camera segment, forged from 80 layers of steel shaped over 22 days using 78 processes at extreme temperatures.

The design and engineering that went into this flagship phone signifies the boundary-pushing vision of HUAWEI, without losing its elegant touch.

Pushing the foldable frontier

As a pioneer in the tri-fold phone market, the HUAWEI Mate XT has pushed the boundaries for folding smartphones with its multi-orientation inward and outward folding, overcoming design and engineering challenges that previously seemed impossible to solve.

Its form required a rethinking and reconstruction of the screen, hinges, and body of foldable phones, to ensure compression and tension resistance.

The display leverages the developments in multi-directional flexible materials to resist compression and stretching, enhancing bend resistance.

The 322 cm² extra-large UTG glass utilises non-Newtonian fluid material for better impact resistance, making it [strong when challenged and gentle when needed].

The phone utilises an Advanced Precision Hinge System featuring ultra-thin, ultra-durable hinges made from high-strength steel for a smooth and lightweight experience with an impressive 26 precision cams for optimal opening and closing feel.

The core components are made with ultra-high-strength steel to ensure durability, offering a deformation resistance of 1,900 MPa.

HUAWEI has refined the hinge system, ensuring the HUAWEI Mate XT provides a seamless transition between different modes without creases or wear issues.

Whether switching between phone, tablet, or laptop-like mode, users can count on the HUAWEI Mate XT's hinge to hold up over time.

For phone unlocking convenience, the device is also equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

An emphasis on multi-functionality

A smartphone should adapt to the user's needs, and not the other way around. The HUAWEI Mate XT's triple-screen design caters to different usage modes, almost like carrying a PC, tablet, and camera all in one smartphone-sized device.

In Single-Screen mode, it is compact and easy to handle for everyday tasks at 6.41 inches, offering the portability of a bar phone with the flexibility of a foldable tablet.

The Dual-Screen mode offers an ideal setup for multitasking - perfect for simultaneous document reading and browsing.

For maximised visual experience, the Triple-Screen Landscape Mode demonstrates the true extent of the HUAWEI Mate XT's massive 10.2 inch Hi-Res HUAWEI X-True Display, boasting a maximum 3K resolution.

Powered by HarmonyOS and HUAWEI’s top chipset, users can effortlessly adapt to different app layouts, ensuring smooth navigation and a highly responsive interface.

An ideal setup for both work and play, the device is perfect for split-screen multitasking for work and binge-watching in full resolution.

The phone can also be used in Triple-Screen Portrait Mode, providing a high-resolution experience for vertical content and social media.

To complement the multiple orientation modes, the device features an intuitive user interface that seamlessly integrates with the foldable display, ensuring smooth transitions between different screen modes, which allows apps to resize dynamically for a top-notch user experience.

Defining a new era in foldable phones

The Mate XT is HUAWEI's statement for the future, marking its commitment towards pushing further the boundaries of foldable smartphone technology, challenging the notion of the traditional smartphone form factor.

Its dual-fold alternative, the HUAWEI Mate X6, also offers the same top-notch lightness and reliability - sleek but strong.

Offering the same level of durability, its advanced precision hinge system is ultra-fold resistant, with a middle frame made of aviation-grade aluminium to ensure pressure resistance.

The inner screen is ultra-durable, able to withstand extreme stress - even the weight of a 150kg motorcycle. On top of that, the outer screen is made of 2nd Gen Kunlun Glass, which makes it drop-resistant.

The Mate X6 features an innovative distributed architecture design with ultra-high thermal conductivity graphene for better heat dissipation in an ultra-thin package.

The device is sleek but strong, offering a fold-resistant, pressure-resistant, ultra-light design without compromising on durability.

It is equipped with a 5,600mAh battery supporting 66W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging, ensuring users can quickly recharge and stay connected through the day.

Top-tier mobile photography experience

Equipped with HUAWEI's top-tier flagship camera technology, the Mate XT ensures users capture stunning, vibrant photos with superior clarity.

The 50MP Ultra Aperture Camera features an adjustable f/1.4-f/4.0 aperture, which allows users control over aperture settings for that bokeh look.

The periscope telephoto lens enables 5.5x optical zoom, capturing details from a distance, while the 12MP ultra-wide camera allows for stunning landscape shots with more in the frame.

Moreover, HUAWEI's Ultra Chroma camera technology allows users to capture images with true-to-life colour by using spectral channels to capture every detail, from skin tones to vibrant backgrounds.
