TL;DR HUAWEI has launched a new triple-folding phone with a sleeker build and new colors.
The Mate XT2 features a 10.2-inch screen and has a special edition with a privacy screen.
The tri-fold runs on HUAWEI’s own Kirin 9050 Pro chipset with 40% gains in CPU performance.

At a launch event in China earlier today, HUAWEI pulled the wraps off the Mate XT 2 tri-fold phone. Like the previous XT series phones from HUAWEI, the Mate XT2 unfolds fully to a 10.2-inch inner screen with a roughly 3.2K resolution when fully unfolded.

As with the older version, the Mate XT2 can also be unfolded to reveal just two faces (similar to a familiar book-style design), or folded entirely into a slab-phone-like design with a 6.5-inch front. Both the inner and outer displays use LTPO technology, allowing variable refresh rates between 1 and 120Hz.
The outer display now also gets a new selfie camera cutout shaped like the iPhone’s Dynamic Island instead of a hole-punch. The phone also gets a special edition with a privacy screen, which HUAWEI has previously used on some laptops.
