Huawei is gearing up for a highly anticipated launch event on September 10, where the company is expected to unveil its long-rumored tri-fold smartphone. The announcement, made by Huawei and its CEO Richard Yu via social media, has generated significant buzz in the tech community. The event, scheduled to begin at 2:30 PM (12:00 PM IST), is expected to showcase not only the tri-fold smartphone but also new HarmonyOS smart driving products, including the A new model of smart car and the Luxeed R7.
What to Expect from Huawei’s Tri-Fold Smartphone
Huawei’s upcoming tri-fold smartphone, the first of its kind, is speculated to feature a tablet-like build with a 10-inch inner screen. The device is rumored to include two inward-folding screens and one outward-facing screen, all connected through a dual-hinge system. Powered by the Kirin 9 series chipset, this innovative smartphone is expected to boast a circular camera module and a slim design, alongside advanced AI capabilities. The tri-fold design could give Huawei a competitive edge over Samsung in the foldable smartphone market.
The Broader Impact of Huawei’s September 10 Event
The unveiling of Huawei’s tri-fold smartphone is poised to be a game-changer in the rapidly evolving foldable market. The timing of the event is particularly notable as it falls just one day after Apple’s scheduled launch of the iPhone 16 series, creating a direct clash between the two tech giants. While Apple is reportedly working on a clamshell-style foldable device set to launch in 2026, Huawei’s innovative tri-fold design could set a new standard in the industry, potentially reshaping consumer expectations for foldable smartphones.
