Huawei already launched a few foldable smartphones in the market, including the Mate X, Mate Xs, and the Mate X2. Now, the China-based technology giant is gearing up to launch a new foldable smartphone in the market.
Now, the Chinese company is expected to launch its successor and a new report coming from Digital Chat Station claims that Huawei is expected to follow its usual timeframe of launching a new Mate X-series foldable smartphone in the month of February.
Thus, the next-generation foldable device from the company will be launched in the month of February next year, most probably along with the flagship Mate 50 series phones which have already been delayed.
Further, the report adds that the company is currently testing the under-display fingerprint sensor and the OLED screen for the next generation of foldable smartphones. The phone is expected to come with a POL-LESS OLED technology which is developed by Samsung Display, which could increase the brightness by 20 percent to 30 percent.
If the rumors are to be believed, then Huawei is working on another foldable smartphone that will come with a clamshell design, similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3. The phone, which could be named Huawei Mate V, is said to come powered by the company’s own HiSilicon Kirin 9000 chipset and will be a 4G model.
The Huawei Mate V (name not yet confirmed) with a clamshell-like foldable design is expected to get launched by the end of this year. The device, when launched, will compete against the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series.
Apart from Huawei, there are a few other China-based manufacturers working on their own foldable smartphones that were rumored to go official this year, including brands like OPPO and Vivo. Xiaomi, which has already launched its first foldable smartphone, is expected to launch a new model.
