Huawei Mate XTs: The Tri-Fold Powerhouse Is Coming
Setting a New Standard in Foldable Smartphones
Huawei has officially confirmed the launch date for the upgraded Mate XTs, the successor to the Mate XT. The event is scheduled for September 4, 2025, in Shenzhen, China .
Design and Display Revolution
The Mate XTs stays true to the tri-fold concept but elevates it with a cutting-edge display and refined structure. Running on a 10.2-inch LTPO OLED screen—now with smoother 120 Hz refresh rate and 2K resolution—it combines immersive visuals with sleek handling . The advanced Tiangong Hinge System reduces screen crease and boasts improved durability.
Colors That Stand Out
Two fresh finishes lead the show: White plays the front-runner in promotions, while Crimson Purple adds a bold, stylish alternative.
Upgraded Performance Under the Hood
Powering the Mate XTs is the Kirin 9010 chipset, paired with the Maleoon 910 GPU. It balances efficient performance and strong graphics for everyday use and gaming alike. The phone also supports satellite communication, ensuring connectivity even in remote areas.
Photography Refined
Huawei continues its camera excellence with a 50 MP main sensor featuring variable aperture and “Red Maple” color processing for vivid, lifelike photos. A periscope telephoto lens expands zoom capabilities while preserving clarity.
Productivity Features for Creatives
The Mate XTs supports a stylus (likely the M-Pencil), enhancing productivity and creativity. It launches with HarmonyOS 5.1, offering upgraded AI features, smarter connectivity, and a smoother user experiencel.
Pricing & Availability Strategy
Starting price is approximately 15,000 CNY (around €1,900), which is notably more affordable than the Mate XT’s original launch price. While official availability beyond China hasn’t been confirmed, global release is expected later, though possibly at a higher price.
Final Thought
Huawei’s Mate XTs shows a clear, customer-friendly shift: advanced tri-fold tech delivered with smarter pricing and polished design. It isn’t just a bold leap in display innovation—it’s a strategic statement that high-end innovation doesn’t have to be out of reach. For fans of creative multitasking and immersive media, the Mate XTs may well set the bar for foldable devices in 2025.
