Huawei tri-fold codenamed ‘Iceland’ to rival iPhone 16 series next month: Leak

News regarding the Huawei tri-fold suggests that the device is codenamed ‘Iceland’. After a long year of preparations, the phone now seems ready to enter the internal testing stage. The company might unveil the most-awaited product next month.

As Weibo tipster @FixedFocus noted, the Huawei tri-fold has codenamed ‘Iceland’. He adds that the company has started the internal testing of the device. After a few pre-launch tests and inspections, the tech giant may unveil the triple foldable next month.

The tipster further says that the next month is also seemingly booked for the iPhone 16 series launch. Apple may unveil its next-gen smartphones in September.

It seems consumers may witness a dynamic showdown between Huawei and Apple, the next month. But instead of the Mate 70 series, the Chinese tech giant could bring an innovative triple-screen product to rival the iPhone 16 series models.

Huawei and Apple were in the news for clashing later this year with their flagship smartphones. However, the Mate 70 series launch might delay until December due to challenges like HarmonyOS NEXT adaptation, Kirin chip production, and more.

Both Huawei and Apple have not confirmed the launch dates for their new devices. Based on previous leaks, we may see above-listed products the next month.

Early inputs revealed that the the triple foldable phone will be available in limited quantities. It will bring major upgrades to impress consumers but might disappoint them due to sky-touching prices. Although Huawei is exploring new ways to reduce the cost to a significant extent.

The tri-fold will be an innovative product in all manners. It may use a fresh Kirin chipset with powerful performance. HarmonyOS 4.2 seems another addition to the device with advanced AI features and capabilities. What else the device will bring on board remains a mystery for now.
