Huawei is working on a new folding smartphone in the SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FLIP3 style. This is reported by the Chinese edition of Laoyaoba.
As it became known to sources in the company, the Asian IT giant can release a new smartphone in the folding form factor. The device will compete with other devices of this segment, for example, released at the end of summer Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3. The future apparatus will be called Huawei Mate V or Huawei Mate v Flip. At the same time it is expected that the phone will be cheaper than the gadget from Samsung estimated in 90 thousand rubles.
Sources noted that it is extremely difficult to save on the production of devices of this type, since the folding horizontal devices should have a durable flexible screen. In addition, it is not known how Huawei will be able to resolve the issue with a shortage of components caused by the global shortage of semiconductors and finding the company in the US sanctions list.
Judging by rendering, the gadget will have a folding display, located on the left function keys, a double main chamber. The timing of the smartphone is not disclosed, but insiders said that the production of the device was already started.
In mid-November, Bloomberg sources said that Huawei had a way to circumvent American sanctions. The technological giant wants to transfer the license to the production of smartphones of another company.
