Huawei triple-fold device appears in new live photo

Huawei is working on a triple-folding smartphone, and we saw one photo of the unfolded device in the hands of Richard Yu, CEO of the CBG (Consumer Business Group) division.

Today, exactly one week later, another shot appeared online, and at this point, it looks unlikely that these "leaks" are accidental. Here, the executive is holding the device in its folded form. We can see it is an extremely thin device with a bulging camera island.

The device is expected to have a 10" foldable display and should arrive this fall before the Mate 70 series (which is scheduled for mid-to-late Q4). The camera island looks similar to the Mate X5 setup, and we have to point out that the folded phone does not look outstandingly thick or wide in the hands of a regular person.

Surely, the battery inside is the new Silicon-Carbon technology, already adopted by several other China-based smartphone companies. It enables higher energy density even if it's yet to match the fastest charging capabilities of its traditional competitors.

When it comes to Huawei, yes, most definitely. They were outselling Apple and were on their way to outselling Samsung before the US ban.
