The foldable smartphone catalog was officially opened in 2018 when a brand called Royole launched its foldable model called FlexPai. With the first model attracting attention, other manufacturers also turned their eyes here.
Subsequently, Samsung, OPPO, Xiaomi and Huawei also entered the foldable phone market. In this context, many bi-fold models have been released so far. So what would you say if we told you that triple foldable devices are on the way? Huawei’s new patent has emerged. Here are the details…
Huawei is developing a smartphone that folds in three!
So far, a smartphone that can fold in three has not been released. Samsung exhibited it at the CES event but has not yet put it on sale. However, in the past hours, it has emerged that Huawei has received a patent for this device.
When we look at the image related to the patent you can see above, we see that the smartphone planned to be developed will take the shape of a “Z” when folded. The device has two different hinges. However, an important advantage also stands out. So much so that when the screen is folded outwards thanks to the second hinge, it is seen that the third part of the screen can be used functionally during this folding.
For now, it is unclear when Huawei will launch a smartphone that folds into three. The fact that it has received a new patent means that the company is carrying out important work. According to various sources, the device may appear before consumers this year or next year.
