The Huawei Mate X3 is the latest foldable device from the Chinese tech giant. With its sleek design and top-notch specs, the Mate X3 manages to remain just 11.2mm thick and 1g lighter than an iPhone 14 Pro Max. This opens up the foldable phone market to people who are looking for a supremely portable device without compromising on features and polish.
With its unique folded design, the Mate X3’s display opens up like a book, allowing you to use the device in both phone and tablet mode. What’s more, it is the first device to fold inwards, making it even more portable. In comparison, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 4 is noticeably heavier (263g) and thicker (15.8mm) despite featuring identical specs as the Mate X3.
Huawei, originally a telecommunications equipment company, is now a major consumer electronics company based in Shenzhen, China. The company manufactures various consumer electronic devices ranging from phones to laptop computers. Huawei has been heavily investing in developing new technologies, such as AI and 5G, as well as venturing into the foldable phone market in recent years.
The Huawei Mate X3 was unveiled by Richard Yu, the head of Huawei’s consumer facing business. With his experience in telecommunications, Richard has become an increasingly powerful figure in the consumer electronics industry as Huawei’s consumer business has grown. Under his direction, Huawei has become one of the leading consumer electronics companies in China, rivaling the likes of Apple and Samsung.
