Huawei is set to make history on September 10th with the launch of the world’s first tri-fold smartphone. This groundbreaking device, which has been teased in images and videos, offers a unique folding mechanism that allows it to expand to a larger screen size.
The launch event will take place in China at 2:30 PM local time, translating to 8:30 AM CET, 7:30 AM BST, 2:30 AM EST, and 11:30 PM PST on the previous day. While the event will be hosted in Chinese, it’s unlikely that the smartphone will be widely available outside of China due to various factors, including its high expected price and limited production.

One of the standout features of this tri-fold smartphone is its impressive 10-inch display, which becomes accessible when the device is fully unfolded. Despite its unique design, the phone appears to have a relatively slim profile when folded, making it more convenient to carry.
While Huawei is the first to bring a tri-fold smartphone to market, other tech giants like Samsung and OPPO are also developing their own versions. TECNO has even showcased a concept tri-fold device, demonstrating the growing interest in this innovative technology.
