Huawei is making great efforts to become the first manufacturer that released a folding smartphone with a flexible display. This was told the Nikkei newspaper, citing analysts and “informed” sources in the industry.
To be the first, Huawei will have to overtake Samsung Electronics, whose Galaxy folding is expected in early 2019, perhaps even before the exhibition MWC 2019, which will be held in Barcelona from 25 to 28 February. Thus, the possible announcement of the smartphone Huawei before the end of 2018.
However, to rejoice too early. Analysts predict the smartphone Huawei is very limited batch and very high cost. The cost of foldable Galaxy is expected to reach a thousand dollars, so that Huawei can be roughly on the same level.
