Huawei has officially announced its new Mate XT 2 ‘Extraordinary Master’ triple-folding smartphone. The company revealed that the new device will feature a brand-new ‘show-wing’ triple-fold design.
Leaked Specifications Hint at Kirin 9050 Pro Power
While Huawei made the official announcement, details about the internal specifications were initially scarce. However, a recent post from leaker has shed light on the core configuration of the Mate XT 2. According to the leak, the device is expected to be powered by the Kirin 9050 Pro processor. If this information proves accurate, the Mate XT 2 would be the first device to launch with this new-generation Kirin flagship platform.
Impressive Battery and Camera Setup
Further details from the leak suggest that the Mate XT 2 will pack a substantial 6000mAh battery. It’s also rumored to support 100W wired fast charging along with wireless charging capabilities. The rear camera system is said to be equally impressive, featuring a versatile setup:
- A 1/1.28-inch main sensor.
- An ultra-wide-angle lens.
- A 1/2.5-inch periscope telephoto lens.
- A ‘Red Maple’ imaging lens.
This combination of sensors indicates Huawei’s continued focus on delivering advanced photography experiences in its flagship devices.
Confirmation from Previous Rumors
These latest leaks seem to align with previous speculation. Earlier, leaker @数码闲聊站 had indicated that the new Huawei Mate XT 2 triple-folding phone would feature a new-generation Pro chip. At the time, it was suggested that the screen size would remain similar to its predecessor, but with upgrades including hardware anti-peeping features, a modified folding mechanism, a new multi-spectral imaging system, and a large main sensor with high dynamic range, complemented by a periscope telephoto lens.
The leaker also mentioned that the new-generation Pro chip was ‘leaning towards the same new-generation SoC as the annual flagship.’ This further strengthens the possibility of the Kirin 9050 Pro powering the Mate XT 2.
What to Expect
The Huawei Mate XT 2, with its innovative ‘show-wing’ triple-fold design, is shaping up to be a significant release for Huawei. The combination of a potentially new flagship Kirin processor, a large battery with fast charging, and a sophisticated camera system suggests that Huawei is aiming to push the boundaries of foldable technology and smartphone performance once again.
While Huawei has officially announced the device, the full specifications and official launch date are still awaited. However, these leaks provide an exciting glimpse into what consumers can expect from this highly anticipated foldable phone.
