Futurist: Meet Huawei Mate XT, The First Smartphone Of Its Kind
Nowadays, technology companies continue to invent new ways to rise to and surpass the challenge of creating something both convenient and versatile. With a large population of people enjoying the advantages and flexibility brought to them through hybrid and remote work, even after the pandemic, the demand for new devices to bring a fresh new outlook on what it means to provide the user quick access to everything they need for the day, as well as something that can be used for multiple (if not all) of life’s occasions, continues to be at an all time high.
However, with artificial intelligence becoming increasingly universal and all of the technological giants jumping on the train to include everything AI in every new release, it appears that the technology industry may be hitting a wall in terms of creativity and providing consumers something truly unique, fresh and groundbreaking.
In September of 2024, a surprise announcement was made by the tech company Huawei at their launch event in Shenzhen, China. A giant in the telecommunications industry in their home in China, Huawei is a pioneer set out to create consistent, positive change in how we communicate, and through this dedication wanted to announce a revolutionary design in smartphone technology that has never been seen in any other smartphone brand before.
So what is so revolutionary about their new release’s design?
The Huawei Mate XT is a tri-folding smartphone, the very first of its kind. So, we’ve once had flip phones, which then transformed into phones that slid up, down and flipped to the side to expose a typing keyboard, to touch screens, to smartphones with touch screens that can bend and fold in half for better fit and convenience. How does a new smartphone with one extra fold change the smartphone game? With the Huawei Mate XT you are essentially getting a PC laptop and a phone all in one; when fully unfolded to its full size, the Huawei Mate XT becomes a tablet not just in size, but through its software, which adopts a layout similar to a PC with features such as resizable windows, the ability for multi-window stacking, and even split-screen abilities!
Imagine being able to walk into a cafe completely unburdened with a carrier or backpack holding your laptop, completely bothered due to having less valuables to look after and worry over when you have to get up from the table to go to the bathroom or get a coffee, because you have the Huawei Mate XT. The Mate XT offers the ability to remove the necessity of hauling a laptop everywhere, yet does not compromise efficiency through its complete capability to transform itself into a PC. With plenty of storage and battery life, you could leave that cafe at the end of the work day relaxed and fully confident that you completed your daily tasks to optimal standards.
With anticipation that users will take full advantage of the Huawei Mate XT’s unique capabilities, Huawei designed their newest device with plenty of durability - from water and dust resistance, to an ultra-thin glass display protector and two hinges built into the inner and outer sections of the phone all working together to ensure both a smooth and seamless folding and unfolding experience, as well as that your Huawei XT can withstand use throughout each day.
In the last year, Huawei was able to make a subtle, yet substantial breakthrough in the field of telecommunications. Even though the Huawei Mate XT’s tri-folding capabilities is only a small tweak to the typical smartphone design, it offers a versatility for both work and entertainment that is invaluable on the market, as many other tech giants such as Apple and Samsung have tried to offer something similar, yet have not yet achieved what Huawei was able to through the Mate XT.
Currently, the Huawei Mate XT is available worldwide and is priced internationally at about $3,660. For more information, please visit Huawei’s website.
