Huawei to unveil the Met XTS Trifold with Style on 4 September, just before Samsung’s expected launch
Huawei has confirmed that its next generation of Tri-folded smartphones, The Met XTS, will be unveiled on September 4, 2025, which is just one day before the IFA kick in Berlin and a few days before the Apple’s iPhone 17 Amazing Launch Launch event on 9 September and on September 9.

The Huawei foldable phone is ready to take the center stage once again in the phone race, and it is just doing it at the right time. The company has confirmed that its next generation of Tri-folded smartphone, The Met XTS, will be unveiled on September 4, 2025, which is for Houwing just before the IFA kick in Berlin and just a few days before the launching event from Apple’s iPhone 17. Going quickly, Huawei is clearly looking to attract attention, before the news cycle was filled with Apple and Samsung headlines.
Mate XTS is the world’s first triple-folding phone followed by Huawei’s ambitious Mate XT, which surprised everyone when launched for the first time. Foldable devices are mostly glued to two approaches so far: Book-Lic Fold of Larger Models or Compact Flip Design. Huawei moved forward by adding an additional hinge, making a phone that appears in a more familiar, broader performance rather than square shapes seen in the earlier foldables.
One of the largest talkings so far is stylus support. A video posted by Huawei’s Richard You on Weibo showed him that an M-pencil with Met XTS appeared. This can transform the device to more than only a futuristic-dying foldable; It can be picked as a productivity tool that rivals tablets and laptops for creative functions, notes and multitasking. In addition, Met XTS alone can help to stand separately in the crowded market, where foldables sometimes struggle to justify their price tag.
Design-wise, Leaks suggests that Huawei Mate XTS will again use its Z-style folding system, which allows it to function in several mode, which depends on how much part of the performance is opened. Expect to look at a large continuous OLED panel that bends twice, when folded and provides a tablet-shaped smartphone-shaped performance when it is folded and fully expanded. The report also mentions a new color option of purple color, with more familiar finish.
For hardware, the details are still rare. Rumors point to a large battery capacity, over 6,000, which will be necessary given the size of the screen and the demands of foldable hardware. Huawei hopes that Met XTS will be sent out of the box with Harmonous 5.1. Unexpectedly, the phone would not be running Qualcomm or MediaTek chips, Huawei is probably clinging to its in-house solutions that have developed with Chinese semiconductor partners SMIC due to ongoing US sanctions.
The price is another area of interest. The first partner was close to Xt $ 3,000, even a standing asks for the initial adoptors. This time, some reports suggest that the price of Huawei can bring up to about $ 2,000 (about 1.75 lakh rupees), which will still make it expensive but at least one market more competitive in the market where folders are gradually becoming more mainstream.
