The Huawei Mate XT Ultimate Design, aka the first tri-fold phone, marks a monumental shift in smartphone design and technology. Huawei has achieved what might be considered the smartphone endgame – merging a phone and a full-size tablet into a single device compact enough to comfortably fit into your pocket. With the Mate XT, I believe we’re witnessing the dawn of a new era, where smartphones will be able to offer a new range of use cases, unlocking even more powerful applications and expanding the boundaries of what’s possible to experience on a handset.
This innovative design is likely to reignite interest in foldables and lead to faster mainstream adoption.

Folded, the Huawei Mate XT is undoubtedly thicker and heavier than a regular smartphone, but it stands shoulder-to-shoulder with other foldable competitors like the Galaxy Fold 6 and OnePlus Open in terms of size. While it weighs in at just below 300 grams, it remains manageable and surprisingly comfortable in the hand. What’s interesting is that when you unfold into its fully expanded, 10.2” form, it feels like some feather-light tablet. Because for a tablet with such a large display, it really is extraordinarily light. Crazy beast, this Mate XT is!
The Mate XT’s tri-fold mechanism is its standout feature, allowing it to transform from a standard-sized 6.4” smartphone into a 10.2-inch tablet with a 16:11 aspect ratio.
