Huawei Mate XT2 to debut in the second half of the year: First to feature the Kirin 9050 series.

According to a blogger’s report on April 27th, Huawei will not only release the Mate 90 series flagship smartphone in the second half of this year, but will also simultaneously launch the next-generation tri-fold screen phone, the Mate XT2. The development of this new phone has attracted significant attention in the tech industry.

Leaks suggest that the Huawei Mate XT2 is planned to debut alongside the Mate 90 series. This phone will be the first to feature the new Kirin 9050 series flagship chip, and with its top-tier hardware specifications and unique design, it is considered the most powerful triple-folding flagship ever.

Back in September of last year, Huawei released its new tri-fold flagship, the Mate XTs Master. At the launch event, Yu Chengdong, unusually, directly revealed the Kirin 9020 chip model, a move that instantly ignited social media and topped the trending search list.

It is understood that this was the first time since 2021 that Huawei had proactively and publicly mentioned the specific model of its Kirin chip at a formal launch event. This move sent a very clear signal to the global market: China’s domestic chip supply chain has achieved full self-sufficiency and control.

The next generation of tri-fold screen devices is poised for release. The Kirin 9050 series chip in the Huawei Mate XT2 represents a significant leap in overall performance compared to its predecessor, providing more robust power for high-intensity multi-screen collaboration.

With deep optimization of the self-developed HarmonyOS operating system, the interactive experience of the Mate XT2 will experience a qualitative leap. Whether it’s the immersive feeling of the ultra-large field of view or the ultimate hardware response speed, this new tri-fold phone is highly anticipated by the market.
