Huawei‘s first Mate XT was announced a while back with an innovative new tri-folding mechanism, which took foldable smartphones to the next level. But there were some questions regarding its overall durability, owing to its unique design. Now, a fresh leak hints that the next-gen Mate XT 2 model could be getting a huge upgrade in this aspect, thanks to an advanced glass technology.
Huawei Mate XT 2 gets stronger than ever before
The latest information arrives from a Weibo tipster, Fixed Focus Digital. In the post, the tipster claims that the Huawei Mate XT 2 could be getting the same advanced UFG (ultra-flexible glass) technology, which is used on the Samsung W25. To recall, the W25 is a premium variant of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 that is exclusive to the Chinese market.
Simply put, this is a better protective display cover than the UTG (ultra-thin glass) covers that are found in most other foldable smartphones. For those unaware, the South Korean tech giant gets its UFG panels from the known glass specialist, Schott. So the latest rumor also hints that the German company is getting a new competitor from China (Via Notebookcheck).
Earlier this month, we also covered another report regarding the Mate XT 2 tri-folding phone, which claimed that it would be making its China debut alongside the Mate X7 in the second half of 2025. While finer details are still at large, Huawei could pack the Mate XT 2 with the Kirin 9020 SoC that also powers the Huawei Pura 80 lineup.
