Original Story: September 9, 2024

Huawei Mate XT tri-fold phone has exceeded 2 million reservations before its official unveiling. The ultimate triple-foldable device began achieving new milestones hours before its launch. And this situation could be more exciting after the release.

The Mate XT Ultimate Design will launch on September 10. But before that, the device has already proved its popularity among consumers. In just a few hours of the Huawei Mate XT tri-fold reservations, the orders figure crossed 2 million units.

Mate XT reservation activity began on September 7 at Huawei Mall and it reached 10000 units immediately. Within a short period, the number has become 2 million and now it’s around 2.7 million, which is just beyond expectations.

Looking at the tri-fold demand, the CTI of Huawei Device Business Group –  Bruce Lee said:

“It has almost exceeded 2 million in less than 24 hours. Are there really so many people who want to buy Mate XT?”

A few netizens on Weibo stated that the iPhone 16 series doesn’t seem much interesting compared to Huawei’s tri-fold. It seems the tri-fold creation already outshined Apple’s new product ahead of the launch. Yet, it would be wrong to draw any conclusions before seeing the actual capabilities of both smartphones.

Note that the official sale conditions and units may differ from the pre-order stage. Some early inputs have mentioned that the device is available in limited quantities.

Apart from the official stores, some third-party channels also initiated the pre-order activity for 20000-30000 yuan. On some platforms, the device is priced at 999900 yuan.

The company has yet to reveal the exact cost details of the tri-fold. Hence, it is better to take the current price info with a grain of salt. Just one more day and we may grab the accurate specs, features, and other info about the new triple-foldable.

Huawei Mate XT Ultimate Design comes in two storage variants at the reservations: 16GB + 512GB and 16GB + 1TB. Users can also pick the device in two color options which are Black and Red. Both shades are eye-catching and offer a mesmerizing look.

Mate XT tri-fold reservation activity is running live and will remain valid till September 19. Thereafter, the Chinese phone maker will open the device for the official sale. Interested consumers can tap HERE to directly land on the purchase page.
