[Capture news] "My imagination came true"...Huawei Folds No. 3 to Shoot Apple and Samsung

Huawei is the world's first three-tier foldable smartphone ("Mate XT").

When fully unfolded, the screen is 10.2 inches wide, as large as most tablet PCs.

It is 3.6mm thick and as thin as Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 6 (12.1mm), which is double even when folded in three layers.

If you have a foldable keyboard, you'll be carrying a computer in your pocket.

The price is set at 3.8 million won to 4.5 million won depending on the specifications.

Even with more than twice the price of existing foldable phones, more than 4 million pre-orders flooded in three days.

Huawei launched an open challenge by holding a product briefing on the same day as Apple's iPhone 16 launch event.

Market sales will start on the 20th, just like Apple.

The Chinese people's tendency to consume patriotism is also a strong support.

[Chaoyicheon / Beijing resident: I was so moved by the presentation of the new product. I've never seen a domestic product like this before. It's a three-tier foldable phone.]

Samsung, which lost its No. 1 market share to Huawei for two consecutive quarters, is expected to have a tougher path to retake the throne.
