Honor CEO Zhao Ming comments on Huawei’s tri-fold smartphone
Honor CEO Zhao Ming answered a question from the media about Huawei tri-fold smartphone. The executive stated how he sees the new creation in the market. He also revealed when the company will push its own triple foldable in the competition.
Zhao Ming had a small media interaction after the Magic V3 global debut. During the interview, the media asked what the company thinks about Huawei’s tri-foldable.
The CEO responded that he wants to see if Huawei’s tri-fold will be a show of strength or a real demand in the market. It seems Honor is waiting for consumers’ reaction to the world’s first triple-foldable before making any moves toward this trend.
When asked if Honor sees Huawei tri-fold phone as a competitor, the CEO replied that the triple-folding screen technology doesn’t appear an issue for the company.
“The three-fold technology reserves are not a problem for Honor. For us, the three-fold is not a technical issue, but a matter of business choice.” – said Zhao Ming.
Honor is one of the top-end foldable makers worldwide. The company has recently surprised its users with the thinnest book-type folding phone – the Magic V3. The device has left Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Pixel 9 Pro Fold behind in design and capabilities.
Regarding the new device, Honor’s tri-fold is already in the works. As per the details, the company’s triple-folding handset is in development. But its launch will entirely depend on the market response for the world’s first triple foldable smartphone.
Apart from the tri-fold, Honor has also issued patents for scrollable phones and many other interesting technologies. Following the consumer feedback on the Huawei Mate XT, the company may launch its first triple foldable handset in the market.
Huawei Mate XT:
The Chinese OEM has revealed a slight glimpse of the first-ever tri-fold via a video teaser. With a large, slim, and lightweight design, the Mate XT phone will likely be a huge success for Huawei. Although the pricing still seems to be an obstacle in this matter.
