Huawei’s first trifold is a great phone that you shouldn’t buy

Summary
The Mate XT is an impressive phone with a versatile form factor, but it has several drawbacks that might make you think twice about buying it.
While it is no longer exclusive to China and is on sale in a handful of markets, it is not available in the US or Europe.
It doesn’t have native support for Google apps and is stuck with 4G, and there are concerns about its durability.
However, it is a good device that offers three devices in one: a regular phone with a 6.4-inch display, a 7.9-inch display for reading, and a 10.2-inch display for use as a thin, lightweight tablet.
It also has impressive battery life, despite only having 4G.
This is a form factor that is here to stay, and it’s one that you should consider even if you don’t end up buying this particular device.
