Huawei<\/a> is working on the new-gen Mate XT 2 tri-fold<\/a>, and the device could undergo major design changes, adopting a compact, wider layout. The handset is rumored to feature a different form factor that will increase its usability in many aspects.<\/p>\n

SuperDimensional noted that the Huawei Mate XT 2 triple-foldable won\u2019t look similar to the Mate X8<\/a> dual-fold smartphone and will bring a wider design profile.<\/p>\n

The previous two generations of tri-folds<\/a> resemble the Mate X dual-folding phone appearance. They have the same slim cutout for the first folding panel and a giant octagonal camera module, complemented by golden strips all over the back.<\/p>\n

But the company<\/a> is planning to ditch this concept for the 2026 tri-fold. It will carve the new Mate XT 2 model into a different form factor that will set it apart from the upcoming Mate X8 flagship. In addition, it could be more compact than before.<\/p>\n

U-shaped layout will further contribute to the device\u2019s durability. While the G look often generates concern over the screen\u2019s protection, the U-based folding will flip the side panels over the center one to solve the weakness of the exposed inner screen.<\/p>\n

Adding more, the tipster said that the Mate XT 2 will feature the world\u2019s first LogicFolding Architecture-based Kirin chipset. The processor will deliver a comprehensive performance to the device, enhancing the overall efficiency.<\/p>\n

Early inputs suggested that Huawei will launch the ultimate mobile SoC of this year with the Mate 90 series. But rumors claim that the 2026 tri-fold and Mate flagship are launching together in September, delaying the Mate X8 official unveiling.<\/p>\n

Huawei will also use upgraded imaging capabilities for the new triple folding phone. Though how it will launch these top-tier creations is worth looking at!<\/p>\n
