According to Ross Young, the CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, Huawei will launch a cheapest foldable phone this year, alongside the Huawei Mate 40 series. Huawei Mate X and Mate Xs previously launched by Huawei. This upcoming foldable will be different from these two devices.
Young said that “ We expect Huawei to develop both a clamshell and an in-folding model, and we believe they are struggling to find an ultra-thin glass solution for the clamshell at the moment. But we expect to offer an in-folding model later this year, at a fairly aggressive price. ”
