Huawei has officially announced that it will hold a product launch event on Sept. 4 at 2:30pm (local time) in China. The highlight of this event will be the debut of the company’s next-generation triple-folding flagship smartphone dubbed the Huawei Mate XTs. According to Chinese tipsters, the device will arrive with important upgrades in processing power, imaging, and design, while also hinting at an interesting pricing strategy.
Huawei Mate XTs key details emerge
The upcoming Huawei Mate XTs Extraordinary Master is the brand’s second triple-folding model. According to tipster Digital Chat Station, it continues the design approach of its predecessor and will arrive in two new color options: White and Crimson Purple, with White set to be the primary promotional shade.
On the hardware front, the Mate XTs will be powered by the Kirin 9020 chipset, the same series found in the Huawei Pura 80 lineup. The chip integrates a CPU built on a 1+3+4 core architecture alongside the Maleoon 920 GPU. The device also supports satellite communication.
Huawei has upgraded the Mate XTs hinge technology to what it calls the Tiangong Hinge System, which is designed to deliver greater durability and improved crease control. On the imaging side, the Mate XTs will feature a 50-megapixel main camera with a variable aperture and support for “Red Maple” true colour imaging. In addition, a periscope telephoto camera has been added to strengthen zoom capabilities.
The Mate XTs is also tipped to arrive with stylus support. The previous model, the Mate XT, sold more than 5,00,000 units and generated 12.54 billion Yuan (approx. $1.73 billion) in revenue. With these upgrades, analysts suggest the new model could push sales towards the one million mark. Pricing is expected to start around 15,000 Yuan (~ $2,060), down from the earlier model’s 19,999 Yuan (~$2,750) launch price.
