Though there are currently no official information available, there are a lot of suspicions and conjectures circulating on social media. A photo of Huawei CEO Yu working on the company's new tri-fold smartphone went viral earlier this month. According to the photograph, the leftmost screen of the gadget has a selfie camera positioned in the middle of the punch-hole. In addition, the gadget has two creases since it has two hinges rather to the one hinge seen on standard folding smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Vivo X Fold3 Pro, and Huawei Mate X5.
According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the device resembles a previously seen R&D prototype, which was spotted earlier. It is expected to feature a 10-inch screen, which is equal to a tablet. This means that the device unfolds to look like a tablet with three divided screens. The rumour has it that the upcoming device will be powered by a Kirin 9-series processor.
