The folding phonesS They have been with us for a few years. Enough to begin to understand that, far from being a product with aspirations to approach the most mainstream consumer, they are increasingly a piece of niche collector.
The folding “fold” type continue to touch the 2,000 euros and the new trend is not to reduce: it is to take them one step further. Huawei has been the first, and he has done it with his Huawei Mate XT Ultimate. The terminal was launched in China for about 2,500 euros to change. We already know the global price. It is far from that figure.
An increasingly niche product
The fold folding was not enough, the new trend is to add a new fold for the phone to incorporate an even larger panel. This is the case of Mate XT Ultimate, with a Total 10.2 -inch panel, 7.9 inches in double fold and 6.4 inches completely folded. A phone, three sizes.
Buying a device with this peculiarity will be priced at 3,499 euros, thus becoming the most expensive folding phone of the moment. They are 1,500 euros more compared to Huawei Mate X6the last folding of Huawei.
The company has not detailed what markets will arrive, but confirms that the global version will be 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. A niche price for a niche product and, although it may seem like a crazy idea, Huawei knows very well what he does.
Huawei is an absolute leader in folding sales Not only in China, but worldwide. He has managed to dethrone Samsung, not to grow, and the launch of a triple folding seems to meet the needs of those consumers who seek to go one step further.
